 Illegal immigrants could reap more than $7B in tax credits this year, senator says Jeff Sessions news conference  Illegal immigrants could receive more than $7 billion this year in federal tax credits, according to one estimate, thanks to a loophole in the law that allows people not authorized to work to reap the government payments with no questions asked.  Sen. Jeff Sessions' office calculated that, based on recent trends, illegal immigrants could receive roughly $7.4 billion through a provision known as the Additional Child Tax Credit. That's more than quadruple what the payout was four years ago, but the payments have been steadily increasing over the past decade.  Though illegal immigrants are prohibited from receiving similar tax credits, a quirk in the law allows them to qualify for the child tax credit. And it's a "refundable" credit, meaning recipients can reap the money -- with average checks totaling about $1, even if they've paid no taxes.

 Summary- Jeff Sessions  Immigrants received more than 7 billion dollars in tax credits. There's a loophole in the government that allows them to get paid without being asked.  Immigrants could receive 7.4 billion in child tax credit. The payments of been increasing over the last ten years.  Since there's a loop hole in the law immigrants are allowed to qualify for child tax credit with checks averaging $1,800 with out paying taxes.

 Chomsky’s main claim  Immigrants are more likely to pay taxes then use public services.  Immigrants pay more in federal taxes than they receive in federal benefits.  First generation immigrants use more services then they pay taxes. Descendants of first generation immigrants pay more taxes at the federal and state level.

 Supporting Claim  immigrants become more like citizens they start to work for wages and conditions that are healthy for them.  New immigrants tend to have lower levels of education and lower earnings, in fifteen years immigrants earnings and taxes have caught up.  Wages, benefits, and taxes are all ways in which businesses give to social reproduction.

 Evidence  The average income in 2003 a family income was $29,000 compared to natives whose income averaged $45,900, refugees at $45,200, permanent residents at $44,600, and naturalized citizens at $ 56,500  Once migrants achieved legal status, they were able to improve their levels of education and income.

  I believe that we need immigrants to do jobs that other Americans would not even though some people might believe their taking our jobs.  Migrant workers want a chance to be successful and a better life for their family.  Immigrants will continue to arrive some will still be labeled as illegal but, U.S. needs the existence of an underclass.
