Uncharitable acts

You liberals scream that there is not enough money for transportation, then you turn around and namecall the GOP-dominated House of Delegates because they are protecting taxpayer money from going to those who violated the laws of our country and entered illegally?

Is the implication that the Democrats are good charitable people because they will reward people here illegally using other people's money?

I'm sorry. I don't see anything good or charitable about that.
