While migrant families get $120,000 in housing benefits disabled Massachusetts Veterans mostly get a $250-a-year cash increase
While Massachusetts Democrats passed budgets giving migrant families $120,000 in annual housing benefits the House is proposing this month a meager $250 annual increase for disabled Veterans to go along with a few other perks.
According to Senator Michael Rodrigues, it costs $10,000 per family or $75 million per month just to house mostly migrant families in the Massachusetts emergency shelter system where single veterans do not get preference over foreign born new arrivals with children. While Massachusetts veterans get preference in permanent housing, families with young children regardless of their legal status, get prioritized in the emergency shelter system. Just last month, House Democrats voted against giving preference to Massachusetts residents and even veterans over others which include newly arrived migrants in the emergency shelter system.
Several local area state reps including Fall River Representative Alan Silvia rationalized his no vote by saying Veterans already get preference (not true for the emergency shelter system) and the House members will be taking care of Veterans on the veterans bill in June. While the House version of the bill does provide a $250 annual payment increase to disabled veterans and a few other nice perks, the Hero Act doesn’t provide any extra benefits for veterans in housing or the emergency shelter system. Instead, Massachusetts State Reps increased the annual payment mentioned about from $2,000 to $2,250 in 2024 and from $2,250 to $2,500 in 2025, but you must be blind, paraplegic, or have a disability to receive this money. Most veterans are not disabled, so most veterans will only see small benefits from the Hero Act. You can read a summary of the Hero Act here which details all the increased benefits.
Migrants just have to have a child to get $10,000 worth of monthly housing not available to homeless veterans without a child. Migrants also get EBT cards, educational benefits and a dozen other benefits which total about $150,000 in annual benefits – event those who did not follow immigration laws. You can see a list of benefits Massachusetts provides veterans here which doesn’t seem like anything close to what newly arrived migrants are getting.
In short, your Massachusetts politicians provide $150,000 in annual benefits for people who broke the law to get to Massachusetts yet only added $250 to a meager $2,000 annual payment for getting wounded while serving your country.

It’s true. I’m in Missouri and I have been trying to get my interview for My 100 in FS. For over a month. I didnt receive them last month as well. The system is so busy its flooded the system. Evan the phones to reach them I went yesterday and the line was longer than it had ever been. I stood in line to be told it was too late now and need to come back tomorrow. It was only 3 by that point and were open for another 2 hrs. Had they not had the line it should have only been a 5 minute process. I am 61 but was turned down for SSDI turned me down since the disease I have is rare. The normal amount is 291 for one but I receive 700 from my late husbands pension.so I get a little over 100. These families that were there all had at least 4 kids with them. I’ve been waiting for 5 yrs for a place to live. We are treated like 2nd class citizens while non citizens the red carpet

I came legally to the USA 13 years ago

These migrants come Iligally, and they are treated like kings and Princes, they have all rights and Benefits and much more stuffs,
What the Hell is this !!!
I have my paperwork on Imigration for the last 3 years and a half!
Can take up to 10 years, to decide if I’m eligible!!
That’s not right for me and thousands and thousands of Persons like me!

As much crap as people spew about Trump this is 100% what he will put an end to, remember what he did , he cut them off at the knees. 4 years of him would do it, then bring in someone else. No other candidate can do it like.him. You want to live through this for 4 more with Giving it all away Joe. By the time Biden is done there will be people, illegals, camping on sidewalks…oh wait they already are! They will have destroyed America. Stop it now.while you can. Joe is planning on allowing Illegals to get Medicaid, my God NO!!!

If this in fact a true report,then shame on Rep.Silvia and the others,though he surprised me the most. He was always known as a reputable man. Well now my opinion has drastically changed. Fiola has always been shady and talks thru both sides of her mouth. Keep in mind these so called leaders make more then most of us by a huge margin and have the best benefits. That said people still voted Healy in knowing full well she was going to give the illegals everything. They need them for November. Their jobs and control are on the line. We need to get out and vote and demand our Country back. WE DO NOT WORK FOR GOVERMENT. Goverment works for us. We need to let them know that. Fiola and Silvia one day will answer for their ignorance to others

It’s clear that non of you seem to understand we will not fix the problem because it is a cash cow. I don’t believer that people in this country illegally are entitled to anything. I did learn that illegal workers are given
A number to pay income tax with, the get no refund or SS or other benefits. So it’s a cash cow for the government. I worked for a company
In NJ that was given a grant of 26 million dollars who employed undocumented workers it’s funny that most of us have no idea what is truly going on, we watch the evening news and think we have the story. I was once told that the left wing and right wing belong to the same bird.

Him and his family have stolen billions of dollars from hard-working people the same hard-working people that want to donate monthly payments to his lawyers /re-election campaign.

Actually it is Incredibly Accurate. With All donations from companies are only given to the Migrants. I wouldn’t believe it my 3 children and I were Not Stuck in Emetgency Shelter for over a year from Domestic Violence.
We get a quarter of Cash assistance and Food Stamps for a family of four through TANF. A Migrant Fsmily of 3 are getting $400 more in Cash Assistence and $412. In Food Stamps.
We are not given food daily. This is US Citizens born and raised here. With Grest Grandparents who had to pay to got on the boats to Eliss Island. Poor and doing it the legal way! Mom’s who have run to save their Families Lives from Horrific Domestic Violence. We are left to go hungry, treated as if we are nothing and not allowed to talk to the Attorney’s who come in twice a week only to work with the Immigrants we are told to call the numbers listed online.
My license was suspended due to excise taxes. The zmigrants are getting the Permitd paid for and driving lessons and license paid for.
Mom’s who are trying are hardest to move forward are only being held back by this system. My Chdren have had the same 1 pair of sneakers from 2 school years ago. Each Migrant has 3 pairs of sneakers each. Air jordans in fact as 1 of 3 sneakers. No winter coat,hat, gloves nothing for us.
You know who received brand new NorthFace Jackets? Not us.
I have this documented it’s not made up of the truth stretched.
One daughter has lost over 30 lbs after entering EA Shelter. My younger daughter has lost 22 lbs
We are being starved! It’s Not Okay!

Absolutely horrible and disgusting…. I can’t even get into an emergency shelter and there is a year waiting list for Americans. Spoke with them and was told to exhaust ALL my options which included sleeping on family members couches with a child which is hard to do when u don’t have family. And when I have absolutely nowhere else to stay then they would see what they could do and all that is ,is to be put on the waiting list. And to be honest even after going thru all that and getting into a shelter how good is that going to do when the rent prices are absolutely ridiculous and the things they want to be able to rent are even worse. With 3 times the rent ,working minimum wage with 2 people doesn’t even cover a 1 bdrm apartment. If you have children it is illegal to rent a 1 bdrm with more than 3 people. Credit score of 630 or higher. And the application fees which honestly is where the scam comes in because most people are taking the application fees from the MULTIPLE people applying and not approving the applications at all. Seriously this country is falling apart and the middle class are starting to see what low income is like and low income people are pretty much being left to the dogs. Well in my opinon anyways.

What a Wingnut comment; took my daughter fifteen years to get housing with a disabled son, this is Massachusetts the home of the dirty democrats, giving benefits for votes, without the new illegal Massachusetts could be losing a senate seat, that is based on the thousands leaving. Millionaire tax, a new proposed 4% tax in the sale of homes over 1 million, the crappy school systems, highest in the nation for auto insurance, “ the illegal, just pay 20% down and that’s it, uninsured for the rest of the year”. The Massachusetts democrat politicians put on a little show for the veterans on Veterans Day and that’s it. My love for this State has greatly faded under this new Massachusetts administration. we get what we deserve. It’s all fun and games until it hits your wallet and if you own a home in Massachusetts it’s gonna hit your wallet , administration is working very hard to find ways around the property tax laws just as they did they broke the constitution with the millionaires tax. It’s just the beginning for the taxing nightmare. Somebody’s going to pay iIt won’t be state workers. It won’t be municipal workers and it certainly won’t be the teachers it’s gonna be you. I challenge you to wake up and save this state from a nightmare that is coming, you can only do this at the ballot box.

So believe me I see the payments coming in. 9k a month for housing providers that take illegal migrants. I’m mortified and ashamed I have to do this.

If you’re seriously not seeing the damage these terrible policies are causing that’s mind boggling. I’ve been a DC Democrat my entire adult life but that doesn’t mean I support their policies blindly. This comes off more like a cult now than political affilation. Our government on either side doesn’t give a damn about us. We’re slowly being replaced for people they can easily control dangling free benefits over their head. Don’t waste your life to fall on a sword for either party. They certainly won’t return the loyalty.

YOUR ANCESTORS colonized Central and South America after they made room by slaughtering the indigenous population. Your ancestors conquered more land than the British, Dutch, Germans, and French combined.
The same people that brought us the Conservatives that perpetuated the Spanish Inquisition and Witch Trials across three continents burning innocent women, and your people also sailed boatloads of African slaves to the New World. YOUR ANCESTORS, THE COLONIZERS.
Take a long look in the mirror, Colonizer.

I am disgusted at what is hapopening to the US. We no longer care about our own citizens and many of us who worked hard to make a life and lost it through little fault of our own are homeless and struggling and no one will help us.something needs to change. I make a little over $1000 a month bcuz I am disabled now after being employed since age 14 genetic and hereditory health issue as well as 3 car accidents, a work injury none of which were my fault, living in public housing whom treat us like dirt, and now I am in fear of becoming homeless again 4th time in this life, because I speak up for myself and try to advocate for people with invisible disabilities. Or is it because I am NA, born here and I don’t count. This is definately not the american dream I once dreamt of. We need legal assistance and more advicacy. If your thinking of moving to Massachusetts, don’t it sucks and I hear its not much better in some other states.

Those people are nasty hateful people. They are criminals. They found American who will support them so they can get away with their crimes. They selling their drugs. Marijuana lace with drug.

Republicans are sending these illegal immigrants to the blue states because they are being inundated with hundreds of thousands of them, and it’s time to show the democrats that are for this free for all none border where everyone and anyone can just walk in unchecked! Funny thing about these Democrats is it only took 50 brown people to be sent to Martha’s Vinyard, and they were all up in arms. Even compared it to their neighbors just throwing all their garbage in another neighbors yard”you just don’t do that, replied a Vinyard native! Democrats want them all to come in, but they don’t want them in their areas! They want them all in Red states to change the demographics of that state, and then change them to blue ones. They’re even trying to make it so illegal people can vote. Fast track them in to be citizens or allow them to vote, they cry. Why wouldn’t these immigrants vote for democrats, they give them more stuff for free than the average family makes in Massachusetts!

You should be ashamed of yourself if you really think it’s a bad thing to prioritize the health and safety of literal children. Migrants deserve their benefits, disabled vets do too. You don’t get to complain that they’re helping people who are suffering terribly just because they aren’t helping others enough. But sure, continue to post propaganda slandering actual children and people fleeing extreme hardship to complain rather than doing anything to actually help disabled vets. This xenophobic rhetoric only hurts your cause. It’s heartless.

Are you serious? Ok so why not allow all of the world’s children in? You make no sense, and it’s not the American tax payers responsibility to do this. Its unfair to all the Americans who can’t get any help at all! Beyond that point if America can’t take care of its own then it can’t take care of the worlds! Second the vast majority of the people coming in are single males, not children.Almost 98 % of the people coming in, say their coming to earn more money! This isn’t an asylum claim, being poor doesn’t get you a green card! Last what about all the people they are cutting in line? They all get bumped to the back! People who come legally almost 100% assimilate perfectly, they speak English, join our military, pay taxes and share core American beliefs, people who just walk through our borders mostly don’t! Infact the majority of the people coming in are unskilled, and won’t be able to afford living here, so they’ll be on Welfare for life, which is unfair because this was meant for Americans not to support the world. And when you’re handling out 150k to migrants it makes them to spread the word and even more come for the free stuff. Many immigrants are getting arrested for going on TikToc and bragging how to come here and make lots of money, they call us suckered! Now I’m not saying that all these people aren’t going through a situation at home and need to come, but I’m saying that the majority aren’t in a situation, and don’t need to come, and don’t fit the requirements for asylum! The other facts are none of them are being vetted! People from Turkey said they were shocked how just anyone could just walk in, no restrictions resistance at all!

Migrants don NOT deserve anything at all. And we don’t get to complain? says you. We’re the tax payers and we have every right to complain how our tax dollars are being prioritized. Massachusetts is in the top 5 states most deep in debt , housing illegal immigrants compounds that 10 fold it’s not financially viable and when the states run out of money guess where they get more? raising our taxes. I care more about MY family than some illegal aliens. Xenophobia has nothing to do with it. The road to hell is paved with good intentions and prioritizing people who never lived here , contributed to it’s economy or it’s growth over U.S. born Americans who served their country is f*cking disgusting!

It has nothing to do with education, pay attention! This whole article is about immigrants getting 150k from the Massachusetts governor, and vets only get 2,250 dollars per year! Our country wouldn’t exist without our military and all the brave ones who died fighting for it! Vets are getting bumped to the end of the line in housing to, immigrants take priority! You gotta remember most of the people coming in aren’t children, 95% are single males,and they claim they just want to make more money! Well.making more money isn’t an asylum claim, neither is being poor! How many communist countries are in South America? There’s only one! Have you been anywhere in South America? I doubt it because if you had you wouldn’t be thinking the way you do! Last why can’t actual Americans get help? So it’s fair for us to pay taxes and get no help? When others from other countries get 150 k in Massachusetts? Fact if all the world children came to America, there would not be an America left, our country doesn’t have the jobs, resources, space! We can’t forever keep printing money!

It has everything to do with how migrants are being treated better than the ones who fought for this country.im in Illinois and the veterans that are homeless sleep outside in zero below weather when they should be the ones housed that fought for our rights. Immigrants get here and are given money link cards they have them living in hotels nice and warm while the ones who fought are sleeping outside.

If everybody on this page contacted their representatives it would help. There was a survey done years ago and representatives at all levels of government complained they get very little feedback. Years ago many people sent letters to their representatives and I remember my mom getting responses. Nowadays you just emailed them and I do. I also get back email responses. I’ve already contacted them about this issue. That response was they had a bill coming. I’m not happy with it I will be contacting them again. You should all do the same. But be nice. That works a lot better

Birth control is the best option after having 2 kids that should be the limit unless u have a nice paycheck to tk care of them

Newly arrived Americans need and deserve all of the help we can provide.
A good alternative would be to build single-family homes that could be gifted to newly arrived Americans. The average home costs about $360,000, so after three years, we would no longer pay their housing expenses.
Fall River has a long history of discrimination and racism. We can see the hatred and lack of education in many of the posts here simply because people are so angry that someone else is getting help when needed.
Thankfully, our politicians are doing the right thing.

I’am a single female, born and raised in Boston. These people whom ever they are clearly do not care about homelessness in their own front yards. They are loving on aliens. Makes you wonder is America in debt to many other countries? Food for thought. I come in peace and leave the same. Remember were the real power lays, with the American people.

You all seem confused.
Last I checked Massachusetts does not have an international border.
All of “these people” came from another state.
Virtually all from Texas. Republican-run Texas.
Governor Greg Abbot is purposely allowing immigrants to enter Texas, then rounding them up and shipping them all over the US, to places like MA and NY that are already over-burdened.
Why?
As politics pawns sacrificed so that you will revolt against the Democrats and vote Trump again.
The “these people” you should be angry against are these people who would use innocent families just to get votes.
And when they arrive here- with no money, no clothes, no food, literally nothing- what would you like to do?
Have them sleep in the street?
Meanwhile, the HERO act just got passed.
Yaay! Help our vetetans!!
Except… one feature of HERO is that adult children can get MA benefits after “living here” for one day.
One day!
Ao if you were the son/daughter of a veteran- not the veteran, the ADULT non-working kid- where would you go?
Hop on a bus to MA, “live” there overnight, then you’re eligible for a list of free services.
Services that other people have been on a list for, some for years.
You need to read and understand and not just make this a Republican vs. Democrat thing.
You are being used, innocent people are being used, and you’re falling for it.

There was never ever any proof brought to any court to show a stolen election. There were a lot of lies that were told over and over and over again until they became a fake truths and you might have been sucking into that. I guess Trump hates democracy. This is fascism in your face trying to steal an election and being king.
Oh by the way your orange god told Congress not the vote on the bill that would have fixed most of these problems so he can be the hero if elected. I guess it’s not a problem with Trump. President Biden is working within the law but he does plan on doing some executive orders because Congress can’t get their crap together. Most likely some group will bring a federal lawsuit and put a hold on those executive orders.
Do know who to blame. Oh and don’t forget these migrants, refugees are human beings. I guess everybody here bitching aren’t Christians.

The democrats wont pass any beneficial legislation unless it furthers the socialist cause at any cost. Future votes are high on there hit list. When governor Healy was attorney general she spent a lot of time filing 100’s of law suits against Trump. Not one went anywhere imagine that! When Trump wins this November I think he will remember Healy love. A lot of legal Scholars have stated her Interpretation of the free housing law is wrong and greatly Stretched the interpretation. It is my understanding that anybody coming into the state For housing benefits are automatically excluded. Maybe it’s time to do a class action lawsuit against the governor where is Morgan and Morgan when you need them. At $50 million a month of taxpayer money being spent on illegals housing the Massachusetts taxpayers need to know if this Law is being stretched to service a political view/votes.

Everyone knows that the 1st day Biden took office he canceled everyone of Trumps policies. That’s why the border is such a mess and anyone that believes him when he says Republicans won’t help him fix it is blind. He can fix it as easy as he broke with executive privilege. He’s a liar.

There is definitely a problem with these politicians and the decisions they are making. Families that are residents of the United States, those who served THIS country receive less than people who are being bussed into this country. Why is it we are put on the back.burner. Yes, the U.S. is a melting pot but something is definitely wrong. When people use to immigrate here they had to have family or friends to move into, they were quarantined to prevent transmission of diseases such as TB and many others. They were also required to put down their language, if they were married and what they did for a living. My ancestors were Not given anything for free! They had to get an alien number or social security number. Many became U.S. citizens. Why now is this such a mess?? Is it all about money, voters, census!? The constitution guaranteed rights but politicians don’t seem to remember any of this. We are supposed to be a democracy; this country is changing. We, the U.S. is poor and the citizens are paying for it.

So. Why not go back to school for better opportunities in the work force? Why not take on a second or third job?
Why? Because it’s not actually the migrants who are the lazy freeloaders…

Screw the migrants and send them packing! No one told them to come here, so why is it on us to take care of them!! As far as I’m concerned they can kick rocks!! My compassion for these people is waning when you take from our veterans and Americans in need!!

I have a family of 5 in a motel right now paying $650 weekly after our previous landlord was foreclosed on rendering us homeless but according to MA, not eligible for ANY assistance! I have 3 children, one with a disability. Several months ago, the immigrant bus dropped off 25 families to free rent, brand new clothes, phones, delivered 3 hot meals daily from a local restaurant, etc. Every day there was a state vehicle dropping off something until one by one they were all housed. My youngest son doesn’t even know what a kitchen is and with what I’m paying I’m pretty stuck here.

I would like to thank the Fall River reporter for this wonderful eye-opening article. It is only the start of the new Biden America. Let’s take it back in November And please vote, that is our only chance to change this nightmare we are forced to live.Vote those bums out and Save America from the Socialist fascist Bidens America. Also please do not feel intimidated by those questioning whether you are a reporter. That’s Bidens henchmen coming after you, and they are not use to It!

God bless all the Veterans and please fully support them, they are what makes America great. It’s not about abortions on demand, Elizabeth Warren And Ed Markey wake up. You should be having a news conference for our vets and coming up with new ways to support them.
Thanks for your service.

I ABSOLUTELY AGREE. Our Veterans fought for this country and our flag. And ILLEGALS AND MIGRANTS ARE THE PRIORITY IN WASHINGTON. GOOD JOB BIDEN. YOUR A HERO IN YOUR OWN MIND. SHAME ON OUR GOVERNMENT. WE NEED TRUMP BACK IN THE OVAL OFFICE. Let Biden move all of them into his nice BIG MANSION. I’M SURE HE’S GOT PLENTY OF ROOM FOR the ILLEGALS and MIGRANTS including the criminals that they bring with them with their hands out. Thank you to the Veterans and our government may not care but WE DO . MOVE ALONG Mr. Biden and take your pals with you. SHAMEFUL TO PUT VETERANS LAST.

If any of you think Biden is running this country you’re just as delusional as he is! I’m a geriatric nurse and I know Alzheimer’s/dementia when I see it, the guy is out to lunch and he forgot his sandwich! Shame on his wife and his family for allowing it to go on this long! It’s ELDER ABUSE!
And why don’t the media bring up his creepiness with smelling young girls hair and his own daughter bringing up the fact that she showers with him when she was little and thinks she was molested! She wrote it in her diary & admitted it! The guys creepy!
Don’t forget him leaving our borders wide open for 3 1\2 years making us all unsafe! And, while we we’re all busy watching what’s going on in Ukraine, Gaza, and those that the Palestine’s call “useful idiots”, The Chinese walked right in! They don’t need to surprise attack us, they are already here! Healthy military age Men by the thousands! They flew right into Mexico gathered there in groups and walked right over the bridge with their freshly pressed shirts and pants! Sent by the XiJinping himself. (Because no one leaves China unoticed) They are on the farm land next to military basis they have been buying up! A Trojan horse! That’s why Hong Kong went down in one day they were already there! They will do what they need and the anti-semite’ who are raised to hate us even more than the North Korean’ Biden is gonna bring here from Gaza will help them out! Notice they are surrounded by their Muslim neighbors and nobody wants them! I wonder why?!
You have so much hate for the Orange man that your going to let our country & freedoms go? Only president in over 70 years to not get us a war! We were getting on the road to being self-efficient not dependent on other countries, actually having a little extra money left at the end of the week! You must not have children or grandchildren! What has Biden done for US? Again, so sad that NO ONE in the Biden family LOVES HIM ENOUGH to put an END to this CLOWN SHOW!
I prey to God. ANOTHER THING he made a mockery of! Declares Easter Sunday (landed on Easter this year) national tranz day and it absolute abomination against our Jesus Christ of Nazareth 8 prey for US all

Well, you can’t say it’s a lie because the part about putting at the bottom of any list is absolutely true, hey, stop being stupid and believing everything you read. Google it its all true. They decided to give ILLEGALS your (Mass) tax dollars. Guess I wonder WTF is wrong with you! I suppose you’ve forgotten who fought for OUR COUNTRY and lost loved ones doing it. What a shame. I’ll bet your ancestors are real proud..NOT! Guess you’ve forgotten how MS13 came to yor state and did some horrible things, Murders, Rapes but this what you do? Unreal. This is clearly a state that is full of stupid morons that don’t care one bit that these Vets died for people,for Our Freedom, I’d wonder why God you pray to. SHAMEFUL

Explain the emergency shelter system please. I think there is a lot of missing information here. FYI just because you’re a veteran doesn’t mean you qualify for all benefits. There is a big difference between a Peace Time Veteran and a War Time Veteran. I don’t know what immigrants receive and I don’t think you know the whole story either. Let’s get the facts before getting everyone all upset.

Trump? BIDEN is the one that brought the give away for all the trash coming in and hes the one that opened the border so all of them can get in. His, Trickle Down Economics, which didn’t work first time are uninformed and and it’s not working now. When will you see it, after he’s given them all Medicaid, Social Security and As will be sitting on the curb because there will be no money. I’m so glad I’m in the later part of my life and Pray I wont be alive to watch the fall and demise of America. Stupid lazy Americans, they’re either to stupid or lazy to read what’s happening. You need a strong Republican to reign this in, then a Dem , but you voters …do you even care?

The government is giving more to immigrants and the military men and women are on the streets homeless hungry they should never have to expect medical help from donations I think they earned it for the rest of their life and being on SS myself due to the ignorance of a sixteen yr old and the so called increase in SS OH please what good does it do when the dshs that’s what it’s called here takes the same amount out of your food stamps and then your rent goes up so you actually end up being in the hole even more and then you hear that your life line yeah right when it is going to be an emergency you can’t make a call because you have no service and then you hear that the funding for your life line is going to stop right being an american citizen really Im almost ashamed to be one butI am100 petcent

We need to vote all these politicians out, put in term limit, one vote with citizenship and ID by paper only no manipulating computer. Remove the pentagon funding and all other funding until they become accountable to the people and are transparent.
