Expert: Unions fund Democrats with dues from illegal immigrants

The Washington Examiner reports:

A push by Democrats on the Federal Election Commission to ban corporate political donations has revealed a new unlawful cash flow benefiting Democratic candidates: contributions by illegal immigrants through major labor unions.

An analysis of a Democratic plan expected to be presented at the Thursday FEC meeting that targets corporate contributions said unions use dues from illegal immigrants to fund their political operations in violation of election laws. Unions overwhelmingly favor Democratic candidates.

"There is plenty of evidence to show illegal immigrants are members of American unions and that their dues are used to pay for political speech," said the authoritative Pillar of Law Institute.

What's more, Institute researcher Stephen Klein noted that unions are "targeting 22 million immigrant workers in the country, regardless of legal status, to join their ranks."

Imagine that.
