From The White House:
On Thursday, at the direction of President Donald J. Trump, the Administration is taking the biggest step in more than 30 years to protect taxpayer-funded benefits for American citizens — NOT illegal aliens. The move, which preserves roughly $40 billion in benefits for American citizens, overturns decades of bureaucratic defiance and builds on President Trump’s executive order directing an END to the subsidization of open borders.
Under President Trump, hardworking Americans will no longer be forced to front the cost of benefits for illegals:
- The Department of Health and Human Services is restricting illegal aliens from 13 additional public programs, including Head Start, health workforce scholarships and loans, mental health and substance abuse support, family planning, and more.
- The Department of Education is ending free tuition for illegal aliens at post-secondary career and technical education programs.
- The Department of Agriculture is restricting illegal aliens from federally funded food assistance programs.
- The Department of Labor is barring illegal aliens from accessing federal workforce development resources and grants.
- The Department of Justice is closing longstanding loopholes that have allowed illegal aliens to access taxpayer-funded benefits.
