We found that Jeff Bezos paid *zero* taxes in 2007 and 2011.
In fact, he reported making so little in 2011 that he even claimed and received a $4,000 tax credit for his children.

This week, Temporary Protected Status for 350K Haitians in the U.S. was set to expire, with no White House plan to renew it.
