quote:

When the coronavirus arrived in New York City a year ago, it hit enclaves of undocumented immigrants with a fury, killing thousands and wiping out the service and construction jobs that kept many families afloat.

Lifelines like unemployment insurance and federal stimulus checks were out of reach because undocumented people are ineligible for most government aid. Instead, they have relied on food pantries, lenient landlords and loans from friends.

But after a sweeping move by lawmakers this week, New York will now offer one-time payments of up to $15,600 to undocumented immigrants who lost work during the pandemic. The effort — a $2.1 billion fund in the state budget — is by far the biggest of its kind in the country and a sign of the state’s shift toward policies championed by progressive Democrats.

But they don't really go broke. They just wait until a democrat is in office again then get federal tax dollars to cover the loss.

New York City is a shithole. The rest of the state, especially upstate around the Adirondacks, is absolutely beautiful.

This virus was the best thing to happen to some of these cities in a long time. They are just itching to spend that sweet, sweet federal money

I think I'm might go rob from Target and if I get caught, I'll just call myself an "Undocumented customer."

California is beautiful, too.

Doesn't mean it isn't a shithole because the big city progressive politics have ruined the state. The same thing will happen to New York state.

Meanwhile, as a tax paying citizen, I received almost none. What a great country

Do you really think the municipality is paying for it? I’d bet an open hand slap to the face the money for this is coming from the last stimulus package. The American people are footing this bill.
