Congressman Lipinski votes yes to continue welfare benefits to Illegals

On Tuesday, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) offered an amendment to the FY 2015 Transportation-HUD appropriations bill (H.R. 4745) to cut off Section 8 housing for those here in the country illegally.

Of Course, 3rd Congressional congressman LIPINSKI voted to keep giving the Illegals welfare benefits since he voted against Gohmerts bill as above. Read more at:  http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/06/12/Congress-Votes-To-Give-Welfare-To-Illegal-Aliens/
