Time has changed, indeed. When I was on immigrant status 20 years ago, I was on myself 100%. It never occurred to me that I can get help from government

Left wingers need a definition of PUBLIC CHARGE?
I am no legal genius but even I know it means any type of PUBLIC (read tax payer) assistance.
I don’t allow ticks, fleas, worms, or any other type of parasite to suck the life out of my dogs, my livestock, or myself, why would I allow those parasites to suck up MY hard earned dollars?
Since when is it cruel or xenophobic NOT to want a bunch of PARASITES sucking the life blood out of your body politic?
Let all these left wing advocacy groups; lawyers, activists, religious groups, etc, keep and pay out of their own pockets for the health and welfare of their pet parasites that don’t seem to do anything well except breed.

It was that way when my ancestors came here. No handouts, if you don’t work you don’t eat is a powerful motivator.

A long-anticipated plan to enforce the largely ignored public charge provisions of the nation’s immigration laws that require prospective immigrants and visa holders to be able to support themselves without relying on government aid could be unveiled by the Trump administration as soon as this month.

This is exactly how immigration was once handled in the United States in the beginning of the last century. Additionally one had to have a sponsor who would be held financially responsible should the new immigrant not be able to support themselves. No financial public support was available for their first 5 years and in addition to these requirements immigrants had to have a real skill that would benefit America. There was no living off the public dole as it is widely practiced today. Return to those days and Make America Great Again.

When my wife immigrated here in 1968, she was told that being here was a privilege, not a right, and that if she wanted to work and contribute to society that was good. But, if she committed any crime, or couldn’t support herself for any reason, she would be immediately deported.

No one who is a non-U.S. born immigrant , even though ‘naturalized’ and granted U.S. citizenship , should ever have the right to vote in this country . Not one . The right to vote , for immigrants , should appear in the following generation , of U.S. born children to immigrants and naturalized citizens , only . The exception should be to those that serve honorably in the United States Armed Forces , and their spouses. They earn the right to vote by their service to our country . Merely coming here should not alone entitle them to that right to vote . It needs to be earned , through future , legal, generations . No one , whom is not native born in the United States , should ever be allowed to hold elected higher office . U.S. Senate , House , etc. To govern and affect the future of the United States of America you should have to be born here and have zero divided loyalties to any other people , place or culture .

Good. I’ve been here 25 years (Canadian citizen), spent years and $15k in legal fees to get my green card. My wife and older son are US citizens (son due to military service). We’ve paid our taxes, have never been on any sort of government assistance and get fed up hearing about chain immigrants who come here and go straight on welfare that my tax dollars pay for.

Those coming in through Ellis Island had to prove they could provide for themselves. What happened in the intervening years?

Wait, what?! If they have to support themselves, then what reason do they have to vote Dem? This won’t fly.

I dont even know why this shouldn;t be: they do this in other countries like my former country Canada.

It’s based on a POINTS SYSTEM before you get in. They make sure you wont be a burden to the system if they give you residency. Everything from health (blood test), assets (they want YOU to give proof of your assets to show you wont be a leech to the system)/criminal record verification etc. Plus they have a BARRIER installed: any resident CANNOT APPLY FOR WELFARE. PERIOD.

WINNING!

Best. Election. Ever. EVER! MAGA! :)

This will accomplish a few things - make Liberal heads explode, slow down the invasion (BUILD THE WALL!), take voters away from the Left and give taxpayers some relief. It may also (small ‘if’) turn some Independent hearts and minds to President Trump’s side.

He’s done so much for America, already - he needs to do some thing like this every WEEK now, and PUBLICIZE IT, up until the mid-terms.

Again, MAGA! :)

That is how it is in every country and that is how it used to be prior to 1924

My parents had to have sponsors before they came here in 1952. Let the prior immigrants, Democrats, charities, etc., support new immigrants. It will motivate them to get jobs.
