White House Confirms Support for Stimulus Checks for Citizens Born to Undocumented Immigrants
On 2/9/21 at 5:12 PM EST
A controversial vote by eight SenateDemocrats against stimulus benefits for undocumented immigrants last week forced the White House to clarify its own stance in favor of checks for the U.S. citizen children of undocumented parents Tuesday.
The controversy on the left began when eight Democrats voted in favor of an amendment from Republican Indiana Senator Todd Young included in the COVID relief package. Some of the Democratic senators who voted for the provision included Colorado Senator John Hickenlooper, Senator Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire, and Arizona Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly, all of whom benefitted from the votes and organizing of Latino voters and immigration groups during their respective elections.

BOSCOBEL - Following the inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris recently, it seemed as though something unusual stole the spotlight. Senate Budget Committee Chair and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders was seen at the event donning a pair of homemade mittens. The now famous mittens were created for Sanders by Jen Ellis, a Vermont elementary school teacher, from a re-purposed wool sweater.
Locally, LeeAnn Schmitz has been crafting and creating sweater mittens in memory of her Grandpa Sconne.
