The Trump administration moved Thursday to block illegal immigrants from accessing taxpayer-funded aid to enroll in educational programs and receive health care benefits.
The departments of Education, Agriculture, Labor, Justice and Health and Human Services made separate announcements Thursday, touting savings of around $40 billion.
HHS called the change a “significant policy shift” that will “ensure that taxpayer-funded program benefits intended for the American people are not diverted to subsidize illegal aliens.”
“Under President Trump’s leadership, hardworking American taxpayers will no longer foot the bill for illegal aliens to participate in our career, technical, or adult education programs or activities,” Education Secretary Linda McMahon also said in a statement.
“The Department will ensure that taxpayer funds are reserved for citizens and individuals who have entered our country through legal means who meet federal eligibility criteria.”

YAY!!! FINALLY!
BTTT!!!
Judicial activism in 3...2...1...
Bar them from all government freebies. Stop the insanity.
LOOK HARD AT EBT CARDS
Hey America. What do you think of the miggies now that we’re learning that they are here to kill Americans and fight against the U.S. Government. You still think we need those foreign nationals in our country?
That should result in a nice cavalcade of self deportation!
It’s time for every country who dumped their sewage in the U.S. to come get their crap and take it home. We don’t want it here in our country either.
Yes!
But, “…ADULT education programs.”
Only adult?
Applying should mean a one way trip to alligator Alcatraz.
About time fer sure.
Make the journey to cross the border extremely dangerous possibly even fatal, and then if an illegal does make it thru, make the pot of gold (welfare, etc) completely unavailable and the only available living place a jail cell.
I think ICE should handle delivering CBT cards. Or picked up at the ICE office.
As it should be.
If an illegal alien seeks medical attention, he/she should be given the same care as an American would receive. After their medical condition is stabilized, they should be sent back to their own country.
We were also running a program to send burglars to trade schools so they could fine tune their theft skills
Send them home - and from this time forward, when sent home hand them an invoice detailing what services and money they’ve taken from us illegally.
Why did it take 6 months?
As he should!
Yes!!!!
The only healthcare I’d allow is acute, emergency, life and death situations.
Am I the only one who thought this was already illegal?
