| Stop taxpayer funding of the 'rights for migrants' legal scam | |
| 2024-01-02 | |
| [FoxNews] As a record number of migrants invade the U.S., wreaking pain on New York City and other communities, one group is winning big time: the public advocacy lawyers. Their business is to constantly sue to win more so-called rights for migrants. Rights to shelter, rights to meals, rights to health care, even the right to vote in local elections. Who pays the bills on both sides of these lawsuits? You do. Taxpayer money largely funds these legal combatants, which include the Coalition for the Homeless, Legal Aid Society and Vera Institute of Justice. You're paying to be legally coerced into providing more for migrants, even at the cost of cutting vital city services – kind of like hiring your own assassin. It's absurd, but it's about to get worse. On Dec. 14, the New York City Council passed Resolution 556, calling on the state legislature to guarantee, as a right, that all migrants have lawyers paid for by taxpayers when they go to immigration court. It would be a "first-in-the-nation" guarantee. Resolution 556 would give migrants more rights than American citizens have. No one else is guaranteed a publicly funded lawyer in civil court matters such as housing court issues or divorce. Yikes, the city council's proposal would make the Big Apple even more of a magnet for migrants than it already is. Betsy McCaughey is a former lieutenant governor of New York and chairman of the Committee to Reduce Infection Deaths.

| #1 Asylum is a legal scam. If we win 2024 and take the power back, we need to use the same laws used to nationalize russian oligarch assets, and seize all the assets from all NGOs that are involved with the Asylum Claims Cottage Industry. |
