Stunning, even for a leftist Democrat: Take money from taxpayers and give it to illegals as ‘reparations’
In a move that is stunning even for a leftist Democrat like Pramila Jayapal, she is demanding the government, which has no money of its own of course, take money from taxpayers and give it to illegal aliens.
For being illegal aliens.
Moms and pops working 9-to-5s, she apparently believes, should give up their wages so that illegal aliens, including criminals, gang members and terrorists, are adequately compensated for the discomfort of being illegal aliens.

Jayapal wants the people enforcing federal immigration law to be prosecuted and for illegals to receive “reparation.”
If given the chance, Democrats will try to jail ICE agents and pass a bill to pay illegals for the trauma of being here illegally.pic.twitter.com/iodC7mphCo

According to a report in the Daily Mail, the “woke lawmaker” claims the illegals are suffering from the “trauma” of being “targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.”
She’s holding “shadow” hearings for her to unleash on others, because as a member of the minority in the U.S. House she doesn’t get to call regular hearings.
She also wants those officers who actually are enforcing U.S. law to be prosecuted.
She “fumed,” the report said, about how, “At the end of the day, the people that have been inflicting this harm need to be prosecuted. They need to be brought before us and they need to be held to account for the ‘trauma’ that they have created.”
Further, she demanded, “We are going to have to have some form of reparation.”
Her hearings generally gather those who align with her extremism.
She wasn’t finished with her wild claims, adding, “DHS has terrorized our children,” and said President Donald Trump is “Cruelly ripping apart families.”
