Here’s How Much Taxpayer Money Illegals Will Receive Via Obama’s Amnesty

By Neil Munro. President Barack Obama’s November amnesty will give $1.7 billion in taxpayers’ cash to illegal immigrants, according to a congressional study.

Last week, Gonzales took the first step to reclaim the land with the help of a Mexican government program that assists immigrants in the U.S. who are having problems with their property back home. (Read more from this story HERE)
