Trenton NJ, Senator Michael Doherty blasted the Murphy Administration for a program being rolled out today that will give tens of millions of dollars of taxpayer funds to illegal immigrants in the state.
The Excluded New Jerseyans Fund is a $40 million program that will disburse money by the thousands to “undocumented individuals, residents re-entering from the justice system, and any other individuals otherwise excluded” from federal pandemic relief payments, according to a web page operated by the Office of New Americans under the NJ Department of Human Services.
“This is one more glaring example of Murphy’s misplaced priorities,” said Senator Doherty (R-23). “He is increasing taxes this month on struggling small businesses at the same time he is handing out millions to people who broke the law.
“Hard-working residents who haven’t done anything wrong continue to suffer from the lingering impacts of Governor Murphy’s pandemic policies,” Doherty continued. “They lost jobs, they lost businesses, and they lost their savings and investments. Murphy should be using this money to help all New Jerseyans, not handing it out to illegal immigrants who are violating the law.”
Those who qualify will be eligible for $1,000 payments under the new Murphy administration program, and families can receive $2,000.
Every benefit Murphy signs is for everyone OTHER than NJ homeowners and NJ small businesses. Think about it. The ones who provide all the heavy duty tax payments are the ones Murphy has a grudge against. So he partners NJ with every lunatic spending program that is akin to the Biden SOCIALIST agenda. With OUR tax money.
40 million here 50 million there. Take, take, take from property owners and small businesses and redistribute it to selected segments of Murphy’s choosing.
You have no say in this. With the swipe of a pen Murphy will do whatever he feels like with our tax dollars.
This is exactly why the Founding Fathers broke away from the King of England…no taxation without representation.
But Murphy is doing this to us in 2021!
What else does Murphy have hidden up his sleeve to pull on us if he is re elected? Judging from everything he has done to NJ it can’t be anything good.
Vote Murphy OUT.
The Dems support base is not those who work for a living.
Those who have been BETRAYED and made dependent on handouts will always support those who give them handouts out of desperation and fear (see loss avoidance). The question is WHEN (if) will they finally see that their “rescuers” are those who betrayed them and destroyed their lives and hopes.
In unrealized taxes, there are a estimated 350k working illegal immigrants and state taxes are taken from their working pay rates. On top of sales tax on goods purchased and in a year, they pay almost 500 million in taxes unrealized. So this article is wrong, the 40 million is less than 10% of what they give. Let ppl live, if your mad at wasted tax payer money look at the up to 200 billion a year that is accounted as waste spending in our military budget.
What about giving to seniors who live month to month instead of illegals who have paid nothings in taxes, and who have came here into those county illegally, he doesn’t care about senior, we see what he did in nursing homes
What’s the matter Murphy can’t take cars of our own homeless and our VETS. First. Gotta give $$$ to the illegals. 40million tax payer dollars And he didn’t even ask us. Danm he’s just the governor. For a few more days. He’s not GOD. Hope he’s voted. Out. Can’t afford him!!!!!’
What about the immigrants coming to NJ without being vaccinated or tested for covid??? You intention to give money to criminal immigrants is insane.
If Democrats voters don’t wake up we will have this mess for another 4 years please vote the right way get this clone out if you didn’t see what he did in 2020 you have to be blind. Tax payers and New Jersey deserve better he should take care off taxpayers first in 5 days it could all change.
