House Democrats’ stimulus bill includes stimulus checks for illegal immigrants, protections from deportations

A stimulus package proposed by Democrats in the House of Representatives includes a number of items that will benefit illegal immigrants -- including an expansion of stimulus checks and protections from deportations for illegal immigrants in certain “essential” jobs.

The $2.2 trillion bill includes language that allows some illegal immigrants -- who are “engaged in essential critical infrastructure labor or services in the United States” -- to be placed into “a period of deferred action” and authorized to work if they meet certain conditions.

It also grants protections to those employers who hire those undocumented immigrants, ordering that “the hiring, employment or continued employment” of the defined group is not in violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act. That lasts until 90 days after the public health emergency is ended.

A Democratic description of that part of the bill says that “such workers are deemed to be in a period of deferred action and to be authorized for employment, and employers are shielded from certain immigration-related violations for employing such workers."

If I were President Trump. I wouldn't sign it. Use it during a speech how Democrats rather help ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS instead of AMERICANS.

I don't care at this point. There is about to be a homelessness crisis if the checks aren't cut.

Ironic that you're opposed to it since keeping the economy going was prioritized over saving lives early on.

I'm guessing if all of you Trump supporters were born in a drug lord town you would keep your kids in imminent danger rather than do everything you can to protect them while you wait decades for an outdated and archaic immigration system to "process" you paperwork. Every illegal I've met works TWICE as hard as you pensioners.

I thought these nuts were law makers. Apparently they don’t know what illegal means. Hell, I say impose fines on them until they are legal and only for a certain amount of time or go back whence they came.

Total Democrat BS. These are the same Democrats who are attempting to destroy SSI for Seniors who are legal American citizens.

Curious as to why the Dept. Of Education will receive $200 Billion in this proposed bill when they have a $60 Billion annual budget. Something is not right here...

And claim Trump is doing it. Anytime you hear something from those turds saying what the GOP is doing or wants to do, they know how to communicate it because they are doing it. It has gotten to the point I don’t even want to associate with former friends that are damorats. Before the black troublemaker came along and fooled them, I didn’t even know what party friends were with or couldn’t care. That black failure started all of this divide and we Whites are subject to finish it along with many good blacks. Flush his nasty butt out of this country.

So when illegals walk right in to your house and set up camp, you're very willing to feed them and pay them?

What an idiot!

I do not want to hear any politician (county, state, or US) crying about budget issues due to covid when they support this BS. I am trying not to get on the time to fight a war bandwagon, but a revolution to get back to basics (not changing government) is looking plausible.

Everyone else in the world waits their turn, why can't these border jumpers? What right do they have to step in line ahead of everyone else? I bet if you were in line somewhere waiting for something and someone got in line ahead of you, you would be one of the first to raise hell about it. People like you are what is wrong with our country.
