Trump to sign executive order ending taxpayer benefits to illegal migrants
Just the News ^ | 2/19/25 | Misty Servi

President Donald Trump on Wednesday is expected to sign an executive order that officially ends all federal taxpayer benefits to illegal migrants, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed.

The order is expected to instruct all federal agencies to review their policies and programs in order to eliminate any benefits that go to illegal migrants, including ensuring that money that goes to states is not used to "support sanctuary policies."

The directive will also require agencies to improve their eligibility verification processes to prevent federal funds and benefits from going to the illegal migrants, including public health benefits, for which the House Homeland Security Committee estimated taxpayers could pay as much as $451 billion, per Fox News.

They do, however, need one benefit.

A USA Taxpayer-funded ride back to their country of origin, or one that will take them. (One way, of course.)

We shouldn’t be paying school taxes for their illegal alien children either.
In my Texas county, school taxes are higher than city and county taxes combined.

As it should be....asylum seekers traveled through multiple countries and in doing so they LOSE the claim for asylum as they could have tried settling in countries they passed through . You cant enter this Republic and be a charge to our nation .

We need ironclad legislation to duplicate this order, it is shocking that it ever happened in the first place but evidently we need laws.

California will be devastated, of course. They offer full medical and all conceivable services to those who are illegal. I can imagine the screams as thousands of useful idiots must lose their jobs as their patients, students, clients etc. are no longer paid for. Consolidating schools and medical services will begin apace.

Does it include a cutoff of the free legal aid such as the ACLU suggesting they get lawyers to sue for not getting enough benefits?

Plus the ones aiding on smart phones as future illegals get ready in Central America and Mexico for their border crossing. How to evade ICE and get on the government benefits gravy train.

OK, inasmuch as I'm delighted with this move in principle, there is one corhort of illegals who may pay for this and shouldn't have to: anchor babies and small children of illegal needing life-saving emergency medical care only.

No, I've been saying anchor babies are not citizens a lot longer than Trump My first post on the topic was in 2004. My point is that children who had no choice but to be here do not deserve to die because of what their parents did. Patch them up and ship them out once they're stabilized.

“California will be devastated, of course. They offer full medical...to those who are illegal.”

That’s state money not federal.

I think they pass through medicaid funds and call it Medical? I just don’t see CA paying for anything.

Schools should be required to report immigration status of all students - if illegal, ‘no soup for you’

Again, Medicaid-like benefits for illegal adults in California are state funded.
