The Taxpayer Discrimination: Under Boston Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu, the City of Boston’s Mayor’s Office for Immigrant Advancement operates a 10-week civic program called “Immigrants Lead Boston.” The city’s official portal explicitly mandates that candidates must be immigrants—entirely barring native-born American citizens from participating in or benefiting from a program funded by their own municipal tax dollars.
Direct Cash Payouts to Non-Citizens: Participants in the program are awarded a $575 cash stipend upon completion, paid out “regardless of immigration status”—meaning illegal non-citizens receive direct cash payouts from Boston taxpayers.
The Progressive Activism Pipeline: On top of the $575 stipend, program graduates receive direct access to $10,000 in “Community Action Project” grants to organize progressive advocacy campaigns, including lobbying for non-citizen driver’s licenses and rent control policies.
The Bottom Line: The Democrat political machine in Boston is using taxpayer dollars extracted from working-class Americans to fund, train, and compensate non-citizens to lobby for radical progressive legislation.
