In addition to paying for housing, healthcare, education and food, the Seattle taxpayers are now on the hook for the legal expenses of people who are breaking the law just by being in Seattle. Also, if you click the link for the Seattle Times article, you’ll see that they now refer to the illegals as just “immigrants” with no reference at all to “illegal” or even “undocumented”. They would have you believe that all immigrants are somehow being subjected to deportation proceedings.
Taxpayers in Seattle will soon be paying for illegal aliens to receive legal services against deportation charges in federal court.
The Seattle City Council has allocated $1 million to be distributed to non-profit organizations aligned with the open borders lobby to cover legal expenses, the Seattle Times reports.
The neighboring Metropolitan King County Council passed a similar allocation, vowing to distribute $750,000 for legal services.
The decision comes as a new report found that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has made swift changes to immigration courts, seeking deportations for almost every illegal alien, Breitbart Texas reported Tuesday.
