Did the illegal immigrants file income taxes? If not, too bad.
You don't get to ride free and then get paid to do so.

Doing this can only buy them lots of mail in votes in November. I don't think those two items are unrelated to each other.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - Payroll taxes, maybe. Income taxes paid out would require them to not claim seven dependents and actually file.
Technically, the payment is meant for people whose lives are disrupted by the shutdowns, which would mean they would qualify. But in my mind it makes zero sense to encourage illegal behavior. What is the win?
I don't see one.

I would be surprised if Mexico or Egypt (or any other country) would look at us seeing we are non-citizens of their country while handing money out in a massive State of Emergency.

Illegal immigrants who don't file taxes, back to their HOME country. Those who do are entitled.
