Trump looking to limit citizenship for legal immigrants who use public welfare programs: Report
by Caitlin Yilek
 | August 07, 2018 07:57 AM

The Trump administration is working on a proposal that would make it harder for legal immigrants to obtain citizenship or acquire green cards if they’ve used public welfare programs, including Obamacare, according to a new report.

A draft of the plan described to NBC News shows the administration could prevent immigrants living legally in the U.S. who have used Obamacare, children’s health insurance and food stamps, among other benefits, from obtaining citizenship. Using Social Security Insurance already made it harder for immigrants to get legal status.

White House senior adviser Stephen Miller is spearheading the proposal, which NBC said would not need approval from Congress.

Immigration lawyers, advocates and public health researchers told NBC News the proposal could affect more than 20 million immigrants.

We should have never started giving any benefits to immigrants to start with. If they can't start contributing the day they set foot in America,we shouldn't allow them to set foot in America.

We already have a full load of native-born parasites we have to support already.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

I would have more respect for a decision to end welfare of any kind for anyone except bona-fide American citizens - with attaching qualifiers, stipulations and restrictions since it's our money they are handing them to begin with.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

Sure...he's got a pen with erasable ink, just like he's used for most of his "accomplishments".
