If you are an illegal alien and you are a convicted killer or rapist, the Sacramento Democrats want to use YOUR tax dollars to keep them in this country.

“The bill, AB 2031, would also “expand those qualifying services to persons having an intent to reside in and having a nexus to the state,” and would include “legal representation and related services for removal defense.

California’s most insane bill yet?

Meet AB 2031, a new bill just introduced by Assemblyman Reggie Jones-Sawyer.

The bill seeks to grant illegals convicted of SERIOUS and Violent crimes with legal assistance, such as helping them avoid deportation.”

Facing a $73 billion deficit the Democrats have made a priority of illegal alien criminals.  Now we are protecting criminals—isn’t California wonderful!

California Assemblyman Reggie Jones-Sawyer (D) wants to give free, taxpayer-funded legal aid to illegal migrants who have “been convicted of, or who is currently appealing a conviction for, a violent or serious felony.”

The bill, AB 2031, would also “expand those qualifying services to persons having an intent to reside in and having a nexus to the state,” and would include “legal representation and related services for removal defense.

This isn’t the first time Jones-Sawyer has tried to slide money to illegals to help them remain in the country. Last year he introduced Assembly Bill 617 (failed) – which would have similarly provided illegal immigrants convicted of serious or violent felonies obtain taxpayer-funded grants to hire lawyers to fight deportation from the United States.

In 2017 California Democrats voted to create a government grant program called One California to provide $45 million per year in grants for nonprofits that provide defense and other legal services for low-income illegal immigrants. 

Current law prevents illegal immigrants who have been convicted of serious or violent felonies from accessing these taxpayer funds. AB 617 would change this requirement and expand access to these violent felons. –reformcalifornia.org

“Not only is this offensive to taxpayers to have to pay for $45 million in legal bills for illegal immigrants — and possibly illegal immigrant violent felons, but it is offensive to treat non-citizens with the same or better benefits as citizens,” said former San Diego City Council member and talk radio show host Carl DeMaio (R), chairman of Reform California, last April.

“For example, if a citizen got sued by the federal government for not paying taxes, they would never get a grant from their state government to hire a lawyer and fight the feds – but these illegal immigrants are,” he added.

One thought on “California Democrat Wants Taxpayer-Funded Lawyers For Illegals Convicted Of ‘Serious And Violent Crimes’

  1. Democrats keep destroying more every day of what made California a once great state.
    Does not matter that California is millions of dollars in debt, they keep finding more ways to waste our tax money.
    Democrats care MORE ABOUT ILLEGALS THAN THEY DO ABOUT LEGAL US CITIZENS.
    Keep voting for democrats and nothing will get better.
