Colorado Taxpayers to Pay for Housing for Illegals

1 min read

Governor Dear Leader Polis is planning on signing a bill into law that will make Colorado the first state to provide taxpayer-funded housing assistance for approximately 180,000 illegal immigrants currently residing in the state.

The bill would force Colorado taxpayers to pick up the tab for low-income housing assistance for both legal and illegal residents of the state.

Spokesman Brett McPherson of Colorado’s Department of Local Affairs said the bill allows residents to “apply for, and receive, state-funded public housing assistance regardless of immigration status,” meaning Colorado stands to become a unique magnet for illegal immigration as the state will be the only one in the union paying housing expenses for those who have chosen to break immigration law.

State Senator John Cooke of Weld county said, “They need to get in line and come into this country legally, like millions of other people have… Taxpayer money shouldn’t be funding these people staying here.”

This bill represents an abuse of Colorado taxpayers, who will now be forced to subsidize lawbreaking through housing benefits intended for poor Colorado citizens.

  1. Dang. We may have to join New Yorkers, Californians, Illinoisans, New Jerseyans, and other in leaving this now far left state. What a tragedy.
