As New York City Mayor Eric Adams rolls out the red carpet for illegal aliens, gifting them free hotels, pre-paid debit cards, and food, military families and service members are left high and dry.
Army Capt. Christopher Wilson, who was deployed as part of the Korean Response Force, sounded the alarm in a letter to Congress detailing a massive pay discrepancy for soldiers in his company.
Those soldiers were made less than when they were working in the United States.
According to a report from Military Times, Wilson’s company received around $460 ($452.56 per Fox) a month in basic allowance.
However, they deduct $399 monthly for meals even if they don’t use dining halls on military bases where they are deployed.
While receiving incentive pay of $195 a month, soldiers still lose $200.
If they have families, they receive $250 additionally.
Given the numbers, soldiers are making $1,860 less than they would have had they not deployed.
This is especially true when you consider Mayor Adam’s new debit card scheme, which gives illegals about $360 monthly for each person and over $1,400 per family of four.
According to Fox:
“Thus, while an average military family is suffering from a deficit of $1,860 over nine months, a similarly sized illegal migrant family is being given nearly seven times more by virtue of illegally occupying the country.”
In more simpler terms, if you deploy and serve on behalf of your country, you will lose money.
However, if you enter the country illegally, you can get a monthly allowance for doing nothing other than breaking the law.
Make sense?
Advocates for change say exclusions from taxes should cover all deployments, not just those in combat zones.
Currently, the Combat Zone Tax Exclusion only extends to those in places deemed combat zones, while other service members pay deductions.
Rep. Garcia called this issue a retention and national security issue.
The government is essentially telling service members and veterans that illegal alien criminals are more important than they are.
Not only that, the cost of caring for illegals in New York is set to explode to $12 billion dollars over the next three years.
