Breitbart: Amnesty Could Bring $35,500 Tax Windfall to Illegals
Thursday, 26 Feb 2015 07:21 AM
A Congressional Research Service memo dated Feb. 25 reports that as a result of the administration's policies, these immigrants could, depending on family circumstances, be eligible for as much as $35,560 under those tax credits, Breitbart reported.
Republicans point to the IRS policy as proving that the president's "executive amnesty" rewards illegal behavior, according to Breitbart.
"This program severely undermines the White House's lip-service to enforcing the law and would increase the burden on law-abiding taxpayers," he said.
Sasse and Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisconsin, denounced the projected refunds as "amnesty bonuses," Breitbart reported.
The payments will not be automatically given to all immigrants. However, those with three or four children who paid no income tax could receive thousands of dollars in IRS tax credits if they file tax returns for this year and amended returns for past years, according to Factcheck.org.
