Another issue. I'd like to see Citizenship CONFIRMED as well. Non-citizens should be denied public assistance of any kind.
I have no actual data to back this up, but IMO based on observation, if only citizens were allowed to receive benefits then a majority of those currently on the dole would no longer be eligible. Thus saving millions. It’s probably because I live in a rural area and see many non English speakers in front of me at the store using their SNAP cards. Inner cities are probably different, but it still seems that we have more people here illegally than we have citizens on SNAP benefits. Even illegals who work are usually on assistance-often with a second false ID. Refugees all get SNAP for at least the first seven years here.
