Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced Wednesday a new fund that will give $1,000 per household to Chicago residents - including undocumented immigrants, college students and more - who were excluded from federal coronavirus relief payments that were distributed earlier this year. Under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, the federal government in mid-April began making payments of $1,200 to millions of Americans who have a social security number and earned less than $75,000 per year based on their 2019 tax filing.

Lori LightLoafers should surely know that if she goes through with this, there's no way in heck that President Trump or the Senate Republicans would ever allow any Covid-19 related, federal funds to go to Chicago.
How could she possibly be so shortsighted?

This is exactly the way things should work. If the left is distraught about something, they should form an organization and gather money from the left. Nobody is keeping the left from doing anything, as long as they pay for it. Gates, Hollywood, Soros, sports figures, all like minded, have money, and can use it to pay for the causes they say they believe in. On the contrary, it is not right to use taxpayer funds for projects that are outside the purview of government. Charity is a private undertaking, and should be funded by private donors, not taxpayers.

Today's elected dem pols seem all to be thieves. They are stealing everything from the USA citizens, even entire cities and this country's history! They are trashing the Constitution, law and those who uphold it and law abiding citizens. They obviously are inviting confrontation. They are not peacemakers, but are a mob full of hate. This will not end well for such evil doers.

When the city of Chicago's Pension Fund is headed for Insolvency, they rather give away the money to the Illegal Aliens, over their OWN?! Well, for those who's Pension benefits will be reduced certainly voted for the right candidate and should be glad that their money will be going to the ILLEGAL ALIENs.

It doesn't matter where they get the money. It is illegal to support someone who is breaking our Federal Immigration laws.

What? Chicago is broke or claims it is. I bet Lightfoot is upping up her need for bailout money. After all, bailout money is free since it grows on trees.

TK is a native of Chicago. Lately he has been identifying as a 17 year old illegal alien Mexican girl, Conchita. He wanted to enroll in high school this past spring semester, but the lockdown kept him from the education he deserves. Can he apply for this Chicago money?

Another reason not to give any of this liberals a single dollar to rebuild, COVID 19, etc. No more federal money to these states.

Then go running to the Federal Gobment for a bail out of cash because you are wolk and broke! Oh...and raise taxes again and again and again. Every time a black person is shot by another black person, taxes in this wretched city should go up 1 percent!

I wouldn't be surprised if half the city applies for the funds - and gets them.
