California Plans To Give Unemployment Benefits To ILLEGALS, While Their Own Citizens Foot The Bill​

California reportedly plans to extend current unemployment benefits to illegal aliens entering the country unlawfully, but some say this could increase the potential for fraud.

Senate Bill (SB) 277, dubbed the "Safety Net for All Workers Act," seeks to extend uemmployment benefits to illegals. Under the measure, the Excluded Workers Program (EWP) will be established to the tune of huge amounts of money.

A substantial $270.7 million will be earmarked to set up an IT system exclusive to the EWP from the ground up, while its maintenance cost would range between $39.3 million to $53.8 million annually. EWP claimants, meanwhile, will receive benefit payments – but taxpayers will be shouldering between $330 million and $2 billion.

California State Sen. Maria Elena Durazo, the bill's author, claimed in June of last year that her proposal "would address a longstanding racist exclusion." She continued: "Millions of undocumented immigrant workers work in jobs that help California prosper; they are unable to access unemployment benefits when they experience job loss."

But veteran opinion writer John Seiler expressed opposition to the bill. In an op-ed for the Epoch Times, he warned that giving unemployment benefits to illegals will just increase the potential unemployment benefits fraud within the system. The Employment Development Department (EDD), an office under the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency, is in charge of unemployment benefits in the Golden State.

"Giving unemployment benefits to illegal aliens would make the EDD system even more ripe for fraud than it already is," wrote Seiler. "Many illegal immigrants pay into the system now. But how do we know they’re actually doing the work claimed? What if they're laid off officially [and] collect EDD benefits, but then are hired back unofficially for the same jobs?"

Aside from the fraud risks, Seiler claimed that the potential $2 billion impact on the state budget may lead to detrimental consequences for all residents – irrespective of race, creed, or color.

SB 227 packed with opportunities for FRAUD​

Meanwhile, a separate article by the Bailey Law Corporation expounded on SB 277. It zoomed in on the bill's relatively low benefit threshold and lack of employer verification.

If the bill is signed into law, the EWP to be established will provide $300 weekly monetary assistance for a maximum of 20 weeks. This would sum up to approximately $6,000 annually in "unemployment benefits." Unemployed illegals ineligible for state or federal unemployment insurance due to their immigration status will be receiving this payment.

"The threshold for undocumented workers to receive these 'unemployment benefits' is quite low. In essence, the undocumented workers are entitled to $6,000 if they are willing to say they worked 93 hours or earned $1,300 in the preceding year and, where they have no documentation, [if] they are able to convince the EDD through a credibility interview that they worked 93 hours or earned $1,300 in the preceding year," the law firm stated.

"The EDD has subjective authority to determine whether or not an undocumented worker is entitled to receive 'unemployment benefits.' To make matters worse, the EDD is not allowed to call the employer to verify the undocumented worker's employment."

The law firm ultimately commented that SB 277 will be bad news for employers if it becomes law. "It is likely that employers will be required to pay higher taxes to cover the increase in unemployment benefits being paid out."

Biden Steals From Veterans to Fund Illegals​

In a revealing confrontation, U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) has cast a spotlight on a troubling discrepancy within the Biden administration’s policy priorities, questioning the allocation of resources towards illegal immigrants over American veterans. The senator’s pressing of Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough lays bare a stark reality: as the nation grapples with an unprecedented surge in illegal border crossings, our veterans, who have laid everything on the line for our freedom, face neglect and prolonged waits for benefits and medical care.

The Cost of Misplaced Priorities​

In fiscal year 2022, American taxpayers footed a staggering $94.3 million bill for the medical expenses of detained migrants, a sum that, under any other administration, might have been directed towards alleviating the struggles faced by our veterans. This financial allocation occurs against a backdrop of over 1 million veterans languishing in limbo, waiting for the VA to process their claims – a process that purportedly takes an average of five months, according to VA claims, though evidence suggests an exacerbating backlog.
The plight of these veterans stands in stark contrast to the swift accommodation of migrants, as illustrated by the case of Frank Tammaro, a 95-year-old Korean War veteran evicted from his New York nursing home to make room for illegal immigrants. This incident is not an isolated one but a symptom of a broader issue: a systemic reprioritization that sees veterans, once at the forefront of national concern, now seemingly relegated to the background.

A Flood of Illegal Immigration​

Since President Biden’s tenure began, the U.S. has seen the number of illegal immigrants double. From approximately 10.2 million to over 20 million in only 3 years. That includes 1.7 million “gotaways.” This influx, and the administration’s response to it, raises questions about the federal government’s commitment to its veterans. The VA, established to serve those who served the nation, appears to be diverting its focus and resources towards managing the consequences of a porous border policy, as veterans who seek the benefits and care they were promised face delays and denials.
Senator Blackburn’s critique underscores a troubling dichotomy: the choice to prioritize the needs of those who enter the country illegally over the veterans who fought to protect it. This choice not only undermines the foundational principles of the VA but also reflects a broader misallocation of priorities within the current administration.
Incorporating the fundamental legal principle that illegal immigrants are subject to removal and return to their country of origin provides a stark legal backdrop against which the allocation of resources by the Biden administration can be critically examined. This principle, firmly embedded in U.S. immigration law, underscores a clear distinction in the government’s obligations towards its citizens, particularly veterans, versus those who have entered the country unlawfully.

Legal Framework and Obligations to Veterans​

The legal obligations of the United States to its veterans are unequivocal. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) was specifically established to serve the men and women who have donned the uniform of the U.S. Armed Forces, offering them a range of benefits from healthcare to disability compensation. These obligations are rooted in the recognition of the sacrifices veterans have made and are enshrined in numerous laws and statutes that mandate the provision of these services and benefits, reflecting a societal contract of utmost priority.

Legal Status of Illegal Immigrants​

Contrasting sharply with the commitments to veterans are the legal stipulations concerning illegal immigrants. U.S. immigration law dictates that individuals who enter or remain in the country without authorization are subject to removal proceedings. This legal framework does not confer the same rights or entitlements seen in the veterans’ affairs system; rather, it establishes a process for adjudicating such cases, often culminating in deportation.
The redirection of significant resources towards the healthcare and benefits for illegal immigrants, as highlighted by Senator Marsha Blackburn’s critique, not only raises questions of legal consistency but also of priority. While humanitarian considerations are vital, they operate within a legal framework that fundamentally distinguishes between the rights of citizens, particularly those who have served, and the status of those in the country illegally.

The Ethical and Legal Misalignment​

The allocation of VA resources to individuals not legally entitled to remain in the country represents a profound misalignment with both the letter and spirit of U.S. law. This misallocation not only diverts resources intended for veterans, who have lawful and morally prioritized claims to government support, but it also contravenes the legal processes established for handling illegal immigration.
The choice between supporting our veterans and allocating resources to illegal immigrants, who legally have no claim to our country’s resources, should not be complex. The fundamental legal principle mandating the removal of illegal immigrants clarifies the government’s priorities, emphasizing that our veterans, who have dedicated their lives to our nation’s service and defense, must come first. It is a straightforward decision to uphold our nation’s laws and moral obligations, ensuring that policies unequivocally favor those who have honorably served over individuals who are in the country unlawfully. This approach is not just a legal imperative but a moral one, reflecting our collective gratitude and responsibility to those who have worn our nation’s uniform.

Reaffirming Commitments to Veterans​

In light of these legal considerations, it becomes imperative for policy decisions to reflect a recommitment to the nation’s veterans. This involves not only adhering to the established legal frameworks governing immigration and veterans’ affairs but also ensuring that the allocation of resources honors the service and sacrifices of military personnel. By upholding the legal and moral obligations to veterans above other considerations, the government reaffirms its dedication to those who have unreservedly dedicated themselves to the country.

A Call for Reevaluation​

The situation demands a reevaluation of how resources are allocated and to whom they are provided. The VA’s mission has always been to serve our veterans first and foremost, a mission that should not be compromised by the political or social pressures of the moment. The Biden administration must address these concerns, ensuring that the sacrifices of our veterans are honored with more than just words.
The case of Frank Tammaro and the millions of veterans awaiting their due benefits should serve as a wake-up call. It is a reminder that a nation’s greatness is measured not by how it treats criminal invaders, but by how it honors its heroes. As discussions unfold and policies are debated, one principle should remain clear: our veterans deserve better. They deserve to be prioritized, respected, and provided for, as they have provided for us. It is not merely a matter of policy but of principle.

President Joe Biden’s State Department paid a public university to train a cohort of “master trainers” in India who will then go on to train more than 2,000 people to become “LGBTQI+ allies,” according to a government spending database.
Washington State University received $15,000 from the State Department in July 2023 to hold a three-day workshop aimed at training 30 individuals with the goal of them eventually training 2,500 people to become “LGBTQI+ allies” and to develop a “better understanding of diversity and inclusion,” according to a federal spending database. The trainings took place in India between Sept. 25 and Sept. 27, according to the university website.

The State Department offered the grant under a program intended to “support the achievement of U.S. foreign policy goals and objectives, advance national interests and enhance national security,” according to a federal spending database. The training sought to “increase the comfort levels of all participants regarding issues faced by members of the LGBTQI+ community,” the university website read.
Individuals participating in the training were instructed on how to properly use “LGBTQI+ language,” taught about the intersection of LGBTQI+ identities and faith, instructed on LGBTQ+ history, and put through hours of allyship training, according to the workshop schedule.

The State Department has distributed several grants under the Biden administration promoting LGBTQI+ ideology across the world.
The State Department disbursed $4.6 million to groups in 55 different countries to fund LGBTQI+ activism as of June 30, according to The Washington Free Beacon.
State Department grants have included supporting “queer” Muslim writers in India, providing classes for transgender “makeup entrepreneurs” in Nepal, and funding a LGBTQ+ film festival in Portugal that featured pedophilic and incestuous content.
Conservative groups, including The Heritage Foundation and the Family Research Council, have argued that exporting LGBTQI+ ideology has been a priority at the State Department since Biden took office.
“Attempting to export contentious current viewpoints held by slim and temporary political majorities does not advance U.S. national interests abroad and might very well induce opposition to them,” the report from The Heritage Foundation reads.
Washington State University and the State Department did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s requests for comment.

Massachusetts School Forces Middle Schooler To Remove ‘There Are Only Two Genders’ Shirt​

Massachusetts public school administrators forced a middle schooler to remove a shirt acknowledging there are only two human sexes. The incident occurred on March 21, 2023, when Liam Morrison wore a T-shirt that reads, “There Are Only Two Genders” to Nichols Middle School in Middleborough, Massachusetts. Morrison attended the school as a seventh grader at the time of the incident.
According to a legal complaint filed by Morrison’s attorneys from Alliance Defending Freedom, the boy was pulled from class by acting Principal Heather Tucker, who ordered Morrison to remove the shirt. After Morrison declined to do so, Tucker allegedly said he would not be permitted to return to class until he removed the shirt, prompting the seventh grader to leave school for the day.

Morrison’s shirt “caused no disruptions” at the school, according to the complaint. The incident prompted Morisson to wear a different shirt to school that read, “There Are Censored Genders,” which administrators also forced him to remove, the lawsuit says.
Officials reportedly cited the school’s official Dress Code when justifying their decision. That policy bans students from wearing clothes that “state, imply, or depict hate speech or imagery that target groups based on race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, religious affiliation, or any other classification.”
The school’s censorious actions led Morrison, through his father and stepmother, to file a lawsuit against Tucker and the Middleborough School Committee in May 2023, arguing the school’s actions violated his First and 14th Amendment rights. Morrison claims he’s seen students wear clothing that says “all kinds of things” to school, including one shirt that allegedly said, “He, she, they, it’s all okay.”
“A lot of people are afraid to speak up. We shouldn’t be afraid—not to think or speak our opinions,” Morrison wrote in a recent Fox News op-ed. “Saying something different from what others might say shouldn’t be treated as wrong. That’s what makes America great. We are free to have a mind of our own.”

A hearing on Morrison’s case was held in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit on Feb. 8.

California proposes zero down, no payment home 'loans' for illegal immigrants​

With the reinforcement of the Texas Border, illegal immigrants are now redirecting to the California and Arizona borders, highlighting concerns that the state’s provision of healthcare and unemployment benefits to illegal immigrants could become even more costly and bring more illegal immigrants to the state.

(The Center Square) -
(The Center Square) - California lawmakers proposed expanding the state’s zero-down, no payment home “loan” program to illegal immigrants. Due to lack of housing production relative to population and demand, California currently ranks 49th in housing units per resident, resulting in high home prices.
“Assembly Bill 1840 is an insult to California citizens who are being left behind and priced out of homeownership,” said State Sen. Briah Dahle, R-Bieber, in a statement. “I'm all for helping first-time homebuyers, but give priority to those who are here in our state legally.”
With the reinforcement of the Texas Border, illegal immigrants are now redirecting to the California and Arizona borders, highlighting concerns that the state’s provision of healthcare and unemployment benefits to illegal immigrants could become even more costly and bring more illegal immigrants to the state.
2024’s expansion of the state’s MediCal taxpayer-funded free-to-low-cost healthcare system to all illegal immigrants is expected to cost $3.4 billion on state expectations 700,000 newly qualified illegal immigrants will sign up. Should more arrive and more sign up for the program, which includes access to gender reassignment interventions, that cost will be higher.

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, bill author Assemblymber Joaquin Arambula, D-Fresno, said, “The social and economic benefits of homeownership should be available to everyone.”
The program in question — the California Dream for All Shared Appreciation Loans program administered by the California Housing Finance Agency — started in 2023 with $300 million set aside for 2,300 applicants, and ran out of funds in just 11 days. This year, the program will require applicants to be first-generation home buyers and reduce maximum income thresholds to 120% of county median household income. Under the program, applicants can secure “loans” of up to 20% of a home’s purchase price to first-time home buyers — the cost of a down payment — with zero down payment to the CHFA, and no payments on the “loan.”
The state’s “loan” can potentially be repaid when the home is refinanced, sold, or transferred, with the borrower paying back the original loan amount plus 20% of any increase in value on the property. Unless a property loses more than 80% of its purchase price, the state will not directly lose money, but without any provisions on how long a property can be held for — including what happens with certain kinds of trusts, such as right-of-survivorship trusts — it’s not clear if the state can ever get its money back if a family decides to hold on to the home.
With the typical home in California requiring nearly triple the median household income to afford, 45% of Californians are considering leaving the state due to the high cost of housing.
