Breitbart Texas reported on a proposed bill in New York that would allow more than 2 million illegal immigrants to get a myriad of benefits including voting rights, the ability to run for office, Medicaid, drivers licenses, and in-state tuition by allowing them to become "state citizens." A sponsor of that bill, State Senator Gustavo Rivera (D-Bronx), told Breitbart Texas he thinks states in the Southwest should consider similar legislation to deal with the border crisis involving thousands of Central Americans entering the country illegally.
The bill was crafted "so that it can be replicated in other states," Rivera said. "If immigration reform doesn't happen at the national level, the states can take action."
If Rivera's legislation were passed in New York, an estimated 2.7 million people, all of whom are not citizens of the United States, would become "state citizens." In order to qualify, an individual would need to have no criminal history and prove they have lived in New York for three years.
In order to introduce the bill, Rivera released a press release called, "Bold New Campaign Demands Full Equality for Non-Citizens."(continued)

today there was an illegal alien baby born to an illegal alien woman who just happened to be strolling through our southern border heavily in labor..
her son was born in America therefore...
so is her an American citizen ???
is he an NBC ???
can he be president even though his parents were not under the jurisdiction of but his mother was busy breaking the law and sneering at our sovereignty ???
but you probably wont have to wait that long to have an illegal alien president..
the parents of the Castro twins the mayor and the congressman are illegal aliens...
Having said that, if the child you speak of was indeed a Citizen at birth? YES, that child is eligible to be President.
Only non-citizens and Naturalized citizens are excluded.
Anything to keep a permanent and growing underclass of eligible Dhimmicrap voters.
Great idea -— let’s just send all the illegals from all the other states to New York!!!
I am now looking forward to a REFUND of tuition paid in the amount of $32,000.oo, since you are now offering it free to ILLEGAL , UNDOCUMENTED ALIENS !!
Please note - this does not include any interest on principle, as CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME , before ILLEGAL ALIENS !!
Thank you for your attention to this matter ... you BUll-$HITTER !!
.... Our American president .... Is not a friend of America!
This is what the South did by importing slaves. These state benefits are federally funded by the way.
Uh, no.
New York would be making illegal aliens into national citizens. They don't have that power.

They already are “state citizens”. If they want to vote as bad as the commie lib ‘RATS think they do, send them back home with instructions on how to elect less evil politicians.
This is not the job of the states! Where the hell is Eric the Holder and his lawsuit boys? This is the federal government’s job that the commie libs are trying to do.
Gosh — that’s exactly what I’ve been thinking of all week!
It would seem the Supreme Court has decided NBC isn’t relevant any longer...
It would be a great experiment and would take some of the pressure off of Texas and Arizona. It will make NY the magnet for all illegal aliens. We will get to see the damage that would be done in a single state instead of risking the entire nation. That is the very purpose of Federalism.
Why were all not yet “ on the streets” marching towards Washington escapes me at the moment.
absolute power corrupts absolutely, and they are absolutely wrong if they think they can pull this off with the biggest firestorm imaginable frying them all.
either we are a Nation of LAW or we are a Nation of peasants and “masters”.
a little leaven has spoiled the whole loaf......
This may e a blessing in disguise as it MAY finally awaken the sleeping giant of American Moral Outrage..and inspire the vast majority of us to demand that the borders are policed. and the existing laws followed.
I do sometimes wonder, now. It seems lip service to the law, but in practice it is shut up and eat your gruel.
