President Donald Trump will seek to deport as many legal immigrants dependent on government-funded services like welfare during his tenure in the Oval Office, according to draft executive orders obtained by the Washington Post Tuesday afternoon. Those orders reveal the new White House administration could be planning to greatly broaden the scope of its travel restrictions, which saw protests erupt at airports across the country this weekend after Trump restricted travel from seven Muslim-majority nations, over the next four years.
The document, titled "Executive Order on Protecting Taxpayer Resources by Ensuring Our Immigration Laws Promote Accountability and Responsibility," show Trump's immigration efforts aren't solely focused on preventing national security crises like another attack similar to Sept. 11 – his travel restrictions don’t include Saudi Arabia, where the majority of the terrorists behind that attack came from, for example – but instead are meant to reduce the economic burden immigrants place on social services....

Church charities hit hardest!!!
Trump has to cut off the money flow to the Churches and “charities” who are doing the Left’s dirty work.
I’m wondering if he’s driving the fox toward the hunters. Is he saying he’ll deport welfare dependents to “motivate” illegal aliens to abandon welfare? Then deport those who don’t abandon welfare? Quickest way to reduce welfare rolls?
Since W. Bush instituted 'faith based' charities on we the people, it is beyond disgusting, how much tax payers dollars get funneled into some churches via illegals and lying Ryan and Obama's so called refugees.
I suspect some in the preaching business are going to get real huffy IF Trump manages to cut off their life's blood, our tax dollars.
“President Donald Trump will seek to deport as many legal immigrants dependent on government-funded services like welfare “
Good. It’s about damned time.
You would never believe the number of well off legal immigrants who bring their poorer relatives over and get them on welfare.
The orders would allow U.S. officials to "deny admission to any alien who is likely to become a public charge" and create procedures for “determining whether an alien is deportable ... for having become a public charge within five years of entry.”Right along with Anchor Babies, aliens arriving here only to access public welfare rolls, Medicaid, food stamps etc. create a YUGE burden on us taxpayers.
I think it’s all b/s.
Trump is not likely circulating drafts of White House plans to the media.
“Draft Executive Order” is hysterical liberal speak for “Out of the Box Proposals from staffers”.
The article doesn’t seem to address the question of why would immigrants even qualify for welfare in the first place ? America was founded by immigrants, but there WAS NO GOVERNMENT WELFARE at the time. Plenty of immigrants failed in America and returned to their home countries. Today the weak immigrant is coddled and the successful immigrant (along with the native born) is forced to pay for the failures. That is just bad policy to incentivize failure and punish success.
Exactly so and all seem to have boatloads of poor, sick relatives.
Then maybe disabled veterans could get more than a 0.3% raise in benefits. You read that correctly.
That’s what I was thinking, they’ll self-deport, either way, money saved.
Are they still protesting at the airports...or did the protesters leave as soon as the news camera crews left?
You can’t successfully have open borders, lax immigration policy all while being a welfare state.
Report Pelosi& Schumer?
WHY??? Maybe its “john miller”
Why would, or should, we import people to live off public assistance? Don’t we have enough of the homegrown variety around here, many families being multigenerational clients? It is ridiculous to continue paying these people money for doing nothing. They could have stayed in their home countries and done the same thing—nothing. I think this is a backdoor way to get rid of Muzzlimes with their multiple wives and hordes of good little Jihadi material who simply sit on their rear ends collecting public benefits for each wife while breeding more mouths for us to feed. I know it’s that way in the UK.
Popular books overseas teach how to game the American welfare and social security system. Anchor babies being a big part of it as well.
This has been around for decades, every administration has known about this problem.
And instead of putting a stop to it we got fools like Dubya trying to ram amnesty through as his great contribution.
I’ve heard libs spew that undocumented immigrants don’t get welfare... well if the pigs start squealing we will know about who is about to bacon out of their previous statement. ..
