President Trump is Protecting Taxpayer-funded Benefits for Americans

Rapid Response

Yesterday, President Trump made the biggest step in over 30 years to ensure that taxpayer-funded benefits are preserved for Americans instead of abused by illegal aliens. 




American citizens will no longer be forced to subsidize benefits for illegal aliens:

  • The HHS is restricting illegal aliens from 13 public programs  
  • The DoEd is ending free tuition for illegal aliens at post-secondary and technical education programs
  • The USDA is barring illegal aliens from federally funded food programs
  • The DOL is ending access for illegal aliens from federal workforce development resources and grants
  • The DOJ is closing loopholes that have allowed illegal aliens to access taxpayer-funded benefits 

President Trump is preserving roughly $40 billion in benefits, strengthening these programs for all Americans. President Trump is committed to his America First agenda and will continue to keep the promises he made on the campaign trail.
