Members of Congress who die in office customarily have a year’s salary, currently $174,000, as a payout to their survivors.
Families of U.S. service members who die on active duty get a $100,000 death gratuity. Japanese Americans, forced out of their homes and into internment camps for more than two years during World War II, collected $20,000 payments four decades later. That’s worth about $46,000 in today’s dollars. Lawmakers and legal experts are looking at those kinds of payments as the Biden administration considers cutting $450,000 checks—nearly 10 times the inflation-adjusted rate paid to the internees—to compensate illegal immigrants who say they suffered emotional trauma

Pay them nothing and send them back to their home countries. But, I guess with Brandon there will be another welfare system created for illegals. The Southern Border will be flowing year round with people expecting handouts. All they have to do is blame it on Trump and they will be rewarded.
Oh how I miss President Trump. He won the election too. What a shame to see our government even discussing this when there are so many other problems facing this country.

If it happens it will be a bait and switch as at least half the money will end up in the pockets of the leftist and socialist Democrat lawyers who support “open borders” and engineered those lawsuits on behalf of foreign violators of the US Immigration laws to draw “settlement” payments approved by the leftist Biden Justice Department. After the payouts occur and a precedent is set, chances are thousands of additional such lawsuits will be filed.

The difference between the illegal aliens and the other groups is they broke the law by illegally entering the country. They are entitled to nothing.

Charge them $5000 for the expense of arresting and deporting them.
And then DEPORT THEM ALL.

How much will protected groups such as Haitians and perverts ask for? The Marxist Democratic Party truly hates our Nation.

Illegals should get:
1: a bus ticket all the way south under guard
2: permanently banned from entering the country again for any reason. No visits, no applying for anything
3: a boot print on their back side upon arrival on the other side of the border
That'll cover it.

Only zero dollars is acceptable to me. They knew they would be violating US law. I have no sympathy for them.

How about the feds send them a bill for $450,000? They can't find them to deport them, but they can send them a check. That's some strange stuff right there, boy.

This latest outrage of an idea will go the way of most of the democrats' ridiculous promises like free college. forgiveness of college loans and medicare for all. When the price is measured against the budget even the Biden sycophants on their average position on the Bell Curve will see that the math doesn't work. Years of vote-buying got them Barack Obama but that was a fluke.

It’s hard to believe that they are actually discussing this. The blowback may be deadly. But maybe that’s what they want - for this to be the final straw which plunges the country into revolution.

But...but...what about all the other incarcerated criminals throughout this land whose prison sentences "separated them from their families?"
Please tell me the difference.

I would think a million dollars each, a home, a car, and a job on Wall Street.

Biden and crew would be a lot better off handing $450,000.00 to veterans who served in foreign wars rather then handing $450,000.00 to illegal aliens who violated US immigration laws.

The figure you are looking for is ZERO. Rewarding those that break our immigration laws is madness.

If these ILLEGAL ALIENS get ONE CENT there will be Civil War over this, count on it.
The American People will not put up with it.
This is nothing more than "reparations" without representation.
