Illegal immigrants are opting out of government welfare programs out of fear of Trump Administration crackdowns coming done the pike, reported POLITICO on Monday.
Due to a proposed Trump Administration rule to deny legal status to illegals on welfare, both legal and illegal immigrants have been inundating health care providers with calls demanding they be dropped from federal assistance programs like WIC.
“Agencies in at least 18 states say they’ve seen drops of up to 20 percent in enrollment, and they attribute the change largely to fears about the immigration policy,” says the report.

That can’t be, right? All we are told by the MSM is how these invaders work, pay taxes, and contribute to our communities. That they never committed a crime, they were just escaping something bad in their home countries.
It is sad that they seem to have a right to “opt” in or out of getting these freebies.
I am glad to see that POTUS has created enough fear in them, that they are at least saving us some money in the short run.
Written as if that was a problem.
Those are absolutely stunning stats that highlight both the extent of welfare fraud in the US and the destructive impact illegals have on the country
[So they are afraid of getting caught breaking the law?]
Crazy, isn’t it?
My advice to illegals and fake asylum seeks is TO SCAM YOUR WAY INTO CANADA AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Justine Trudeau has
a world of welfare programs waiting for you.
Get up, get up get up up up into Canada! Canadians love diversity and paying taxes for you welfare moochers.

I don't remember massive federal welfare programs being available to my ancestors as soon as they walked, legally, through Ellis Island. But I could be wrong. /sarc.
No, our ancestors came for freedom and the American dream of hard work with its rewards and not free stuff.
This is a good start. But these bad hombres should take the next best step. For their own peace of mind.
Self deport back to ol’ Meh-hee-co.

Maybe this fear will bleed over into illegitimate voting as well.
They have access to their own money.
We shouldn’t be paying for their meals, housing and other luxuries period.
If they can’t afford to lie here, they need to go back.
Oh noooooz…..the bureaucrats who sign up these moochers will complain that our mean president is keeping food from the children…and threatening the jobs of government welfare pushers.
Good.
Oh great. Sorry to hear that.
The DNC, Demagogic Party politicians in and out of office, and their partisan media shills, continue to be puzzled about President Trump's rising polling numbers. Thanks caww.
Just great! /s
Great. The rest the rest of the illegal Invader bums and throw them out of the country immediately.
When an immigrant sponsor signs a contract and to keep the sponcoree off government welfare.
You are exactly right. Tucker Carlson had a pre-taped compendium of some of his classic interviews with crazy liberals last night (so he could take off Labor Day, I expect).
One of the “guests” went down that road about all of our “ancestors” coming to this country. And that was my first reaction, as well, that our “ancestors” did not come here looking for FREE EVERYTHING, like the current generations of invaders do.
