The plan would scrap Clinton-era regulations that allowed illegal immigrants to sign up for assistance without having to disclose their status.
Under the new Trump rules, not only would the leaseholder using public housing have to be an eligible U.S. person, but the government would verify all applicants through the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) database, a federal system that’s used to weed illegal immigrants out of other welfare programs.
Another good move by President Trump.
Trump Admin to Block Illegal Aliens from Taking Public Housing from Americans
Just another example of why I love President Donald J Trump.
Unbelievable that we even have to discuss this.

Trump Admin to Block Illegal Aliens from Taking Public Housing from Americans
This should have been done 2 years ago.
This is just one piece of a major Government-wide rollout planned over the next few months, to deny Government benefits to illegal immigrants.
White House adviser Stephen Miller in recent weeks has said that this initiative had been studied and prepared for a long time. It is targeting what he called “welfare seeking”.
I am of the opinion that the more the benefits for illegals get cut, the fewer illegals will be around.
But we have been told they only want to come out of the shadows.
That they can’t get public benefits.
I guess this means that someone has been lying to us.
Maybe we’ll have to tune into CNN and find out the truth!
We were fighting this travesty in SoCal in the early ‘90s during the Presidency of GHW Bush. The mayor of Costa Mesa was leading the charge.
A neoconservative dimwit who was in charge of HUD flew out here and stomped on Costa Mesa, forcing them to allow illegal aliens to continue to live in taxpayer subsidized housing that should have been reserved for Americans.
That dimwit was Jack Kemp. He and Bill Bennett and GW Bush would fly out here again in 1994, to side with illegal aliens against the voters of California in the fight over Prop 187.
That’s when I knew for certain that the GOP Establishment was as bitter an enemy of grassroots America as any Democrat could be.
When Bob Dole chose Kemp as VP I voted third party. There was no way that I wanted that treasonous SOB to be in line for President. And the same with Make America Mexico Dubya. Any GOP hack that would fight for illegals over Americans had no business being President. He lived down to my low expectations.
How mean spirited and racist. Illegal aliens fought and died to preserve the Republic. They were slaves on the plantations. They suffered crossing the Rio Grande and picking tomatoes. And now they can’t even get public housing just because some racist Negros and Hispanics were born in the United States!/beyond mere sarcasm.
Excellent.
About time.
And it took president Trump to do it.
MAGA!
Look for the courts to immediately block this - we have an un-elected second legislature, all wearing black robes.
You have to eat the elephant one bite at a time........
An OUTSTANDING move by OUR American President!!!
MAGA!!!!
Better late than never. Needs to be a law.
Excellent.
Take care of our LEGAL elderly, vets & and people who genuinely need help.
I would never expect to burden another country if I could not support myself. Even if they were our worst enemy.....their money is for THEIR people.
If he does this Pacoima will be a Ghost Town!!
Gained another yard....
Another good move by President Trump.

I have always considered myself to be a fairly well informed voter, but l wake up everyday to find new ways the swampers have set up to rip off us tax payers
