Illegally-present immigrants in California are now allowed to apply for the state’s coronavirus relief program that will pay $500 per person and up to $1,000 per household, according to reports Monday.
The Los Angeles Times reported that Sacramento has freed up $75 million for the fund, which could help about 150,000 who may be facing severe hardships during the pandemic. An earlier report in the paper said the Center for American Liberty is suing the state, claiming that the money is “not a slush fund for the governor to spend as he sees fit.” It hopes to block the package.
Opponents of the measure insist that any taxpayer funds should be directed to U.S. citizens who are also struggling amid the pandemic.
The LA Daily News reported that the state is home to about 2 million undocumented immigrants who are not eligible to receive any kind of federal stimulus. The report said the fund could hit $125 million, which would include $50 million from donations. The money is expected to run out quickly.

Moral obligation to turn them over to courts they are lawbreakers.
F'ing LUNATICS
No money for illegals. California is f$$king crazy.
100% agree that illegals should NOT get any help from the U.S. government. If they come in legally, it's fine! Too many not only come in illegally, and expect welfare and everything else! This is NOT OK!
Lots going on right now. Presidents in the past (to include Reagan, Bush, Bush II) provided amnesty when folks weren't paying attention.
History does repeat itself - just sayin.
