Again something not being actively reported by the Main Stream medial. President is already saving this country a fortune and there more saving to come. Read and rejoice, unless you are a Social Liberal, then you will probably start crying.

"Food stamp usage by newly arrived legal immigrants has dropped by about 10 percent, research reveals, as President Trump is expected to enact new legal immigration controls.
A survey by Children’s HealthWatch reveals that enrollment for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) has dropped by roughly 10 percent among legal immigrants who arrived in the U.S. five years ago or sooner.

Researchers say foreign-born women with children in the U.S. are taking “extreme caution” before enrolling on food stamps due to a new plan by the Trump administration that is expected to be implemented within the next year.


Those upcoming legal immigration controls include protecting American taxpayers’ dollars from funding the mass importation of welfare-dependent foreign nationals by enforcing a “public charge” rule where legal immigrants would be less likely to secure a permanent residency in the U.S. if they have used any forms of welfare in the past, including using Obamacare, food stamps, and public housing.

Countries such as Australia have similar rules to prevent mass immigration from poor countries that further burden their poor and working-class citizens.

The immigration controls would be a boon for American taxpayers in the form of an annual $57.4 billion tax cut — the amount taxpayers spend every year on paying for the welfare, crime, and schooling costs of the country’s mass importation of 1.5 million new, mostly low-skilled legal immigrants. "

UP,

It's all a lie! Just listen to the left, illegals do NOT get any gov't welfare! None. So... how can it drop 10%? 10% of nothing is still nothing! I actually think the $57billion price is on the low side. I like some of the stats in the last paragraph, it compare what illegals use to the average citizen:

As Breitbart News reported, the majority of the more than 1.5 million foreign nationals entering the country every year use about 57 percent more food stamps than the average native-born American household. Overall, immigrant households consume 33 percent more cash welfare than American citizen households and 44 percent more in Medicaid dollars. This straining of public services by a booming 44 million foreign-born population translates to the average immigrant household costing American taxpayers $6,234 in federal welfare.

That is just federal welfare, not counting state and local. And I still think that is way, way low, I've read $70k per illegal in costs for their first year here.

It says newly arrived Legal immigrants.
 
Just one more reason to end family based immigration and institute demand based immigration. If they do not bring a skill set that is in demand, then the don't get in. No welfare, failure to provide for yourself and you get deported back to your home country.
 
My mistake, I thought I read illegal and it does say legal immigrants. That does not mean illegals don't get welfare, it's just that this article doesn't cover that.

I agree that legal or illegal immigrants should get zero welfare for at least 5-10 years after arriving.
