AOC's district has a high population of illegals. That is why she and others have been campaigning for them to fill in the census.
I made a thread about it a while ago talking about how New York state spends over 10x the money on sending illegals to college than for ALL services for veterans, first responders and their families. That doesn't count all the other money spent on helping illegals.
Likewise California has a legal fund for illegal to fight deportations.
California spends more money on cleaning up shit, piss, vomit, and dirt needles than it does on helping the homeless.
Not surprisingly, California's every skyrocketing taxes, especially property taxes, have caused a lot of the homeless problems.
Texas and Arizona are getting a lot of businesses that formerly were in California.
