The Federalist: Trump Admins Ends Taxpayer Subsidies For Illegal Aliens
The Trump administration has announced that illegal aliens will no longer be able to access various federal programs, reversing a policy in place since the Clinton era. Departments including Health and Human Services, Education, and Agriculture will implement new rules to ensure taxpayer-funded benefits are reserved for U.S. citizens and legal residents.
This decision aims to close loopholes that previously allowed illegal aliens to receive benefits such as education funding and food assistance. The changes will take effect immediately, with the Education Department enforcing eligibility verification for programs like Pell Grants and career education funding.
