Gillibrand: Give Social Security to illegal immigrants

Democratic presidential candidate Kirstin Gillibrand wants to expand Social Security to people living in the United States illegally.

"First, we need comprehensive immigration reform," the 2020 hopeful and New York senator said during a campaign stop in Davenport, Iowa. "If you are in this country now you must have the right to pay into Social Security, to pay your taxes, to pay into the local school system and to have a pathway to citizenship. That must happen."

Gillibrand's comments are striking given her past as an immigration hawk. In 2009, the New York senator voted to increase funding for ICE and once said she believed English should be the official language of the United States.

Another dem whacko. Hasn't she heard there arent enough people contributing now to social security to keep it solvent now she wants to give it to illegals. What part of the word illegal doesnt she understand? They didnt like undocumented and dont like illegal.

Easier fix: Send them back home and have NYC send them a check each month drawn on her campaign fund.
