President Trump’s plan to stop the importation and permanent resettlement of welfare-dependent foreign nationals in the United States may significantly shift where legal immigrants to the country derive from.
There is an estimated record high of 44.5 million foreign-born residents living in the United States. This is nearly quadruple the immigrant population in 2000.
The vast majority are low-skilled, poor or working class foreign nationals.
Trump’s new plan to save American taxpayers from the burden of paying for the welfare and public benefits of legal immigrants — where foreign nationals seeking to permanently resettle in the country may have to prove they have earnings that are 250 percent above the U.S. poverty line — could potentially change the flow of immigration.
The Department of Homeland Security released its draft regulation of the plan earlier in the week.

No longer the land of the free stuff ,but a Judge will have something to save about this ,LOL
This is the policy that should have followed the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli amnesty.
Instead George H.W. Bush instituted a bipartisan policy of non-enforcement with the intention of making America into North Mexico.
My libtard friend claims that immigrants or illegals don;t get welfare.....
So they won’t have anything to bitch about this, right....
Don’t fret, Dhimmicrats. PM Dustbunny Turd-owe has never met a low skilled, welfare dependent illegal immigrant that he didn’t like! He’ll welcome in as many as he can into Kanaduh. That’s how Lieberals (and Dhimmis) maintain their supporters.
If Kavanaugh is not confirmed, say bye to any enforcement of that policy. ...and bye to the vote in elections.
Studies say that half of all legal immigrants receive public assistance.
George W gave food stamps back to legal immigrants that were taken away in welfare reform. He was a terrible president!!
44.5 million foreign-born residents living in the United States.
That seems like something that should have been a political issue for several cycles. I don’t remember anybody asking the people if they wanted this. I guess we have new people now, so it doesn’t matter. Neat trick.

We’re getting nowhere with reasonable proposals. Just ban all immigration, period.
This potentially a big deal. A way of getting a lot of bad actors that were shoved down our throat by Obama out of our country.
