Jones Takes Action to Block Tax Subsidies for Obama's Amnestied Illegals | Eastern NC Now

News Release:

    WASHINGTON, D.C.     This week, Congressman Walter B. Jones (NC-3) cosponsored H.R. 1332, the Deny Amnesty Credit Act of 2015, which would prevent the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Child Tax Credit (CTC) from being given to the four million illegal aliens granted amnesty under President Obama's executive actions. This bill would save American taxpayers $10.2 billion, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

    "President Obama's executive amnesty is an outrageous overreach of executive authority, which is why I'm proud to cosponsor the Deny Amnesty Credit Act of 2015. Granting amnesty to four million illegal aliens by executive fiat is a slap in the face to the millions of law-abiding, out-of-work Americans and legal immigrants who are trying to bounce back in this sluggish economy," said Congressman Jones. "I have consistently voted to stop illegal immigration into this country and to stem the flow of benefits to those who have broken our immigration laws. I will continue to do everything I can to defend our borders and protect American citizens from being displaced by illegal aliens in the workforce."
