HHS' Office of Refugee and Resettlement (ORR) provides funding and grants to various organizations that help refugees collect welfare.
One such organization is ICF International, which claims that it helps foreign refugees develop "partnerships" with federal, state, and community-based programs--"especially related to the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program."
TANF is a mammoth federal welfare program that gives cash assistance to needy U.S. families. But refugees can collect the benefits as well. "Refugees qualify for mainstream federal public benefit programs, including TANF," HHS states on its website.
In 2014 alone, taxpayer shelled out about $17.35 billion on TANF payments.
In addition to promoting TANF assistance, HHS has also rolled out multiple initiatives to encourage foreign refugees to sign up for Obamacare (or the Affordable Care Act, "ACA"). ICF International is also involved in this effort, using tax dollars for the "translation of documents related to the Affordable Care Act into languages commonly spoken by refugees."
Breitbart Texas obtained an HHS document for Fiscal Year 2014 that further states, "ORR populations are covered by the ACA to the same extent as US citizens." Many refugees " will be able to purchase health insurance through a Marketplace at a discounted price."
HHS also expands welfare for foreigners through its Matching Grant (MG) program. The program administers "but is not limited to, case management, employment services, maintenance assistance, cash allowance, and administration." The goal of the MG program is for recipients to become self-sufficient within 120-180 days of program eligibility. But an HHS document reveals that the program is not successful.

They couldn’t qualify for Obamacare because they have no income.
Couldn’t a good lawyer make a case that this is vote buying, which I believe is still highly illegal?
The country’s corrupt police, rather than face scrutiny from the people employing it, would rather join with the gangs to get a cut on the loot.
We are talking complete Marxist tinged National Socialist suicide.
The Current FReepathon Pays For The Current Quarter's Expenses?
