    President Trump signed a presidential memorandum on Thursday cracking down on welfare-dependent legal immigration to the United States in an effort to protect American taxpayers.
    The order signed by Trump will enforce existing 1996 laws known as the “Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act” and “Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act” which were signed by then-President Bill Clinton. The order ensures that federal agencies will enforce the existing 1996 laws which seek to save American taxpayers by having their public welfare funding benefits reimbursed when they are used by a legal immigrant.

    The first function of the order mandates that a family member or business sponsor of a legal immigrant looking to permanently resettle in the U.S. is responsible for paying back the welfare costs previously used by that immigrant.

    For example, if a visa holder has used $10,000 in food stamp benefits while living in the U.S., when a family member sponsors them for a green card, that family member will be notified of the legal immigrant’s welfare costs to taxpayers and obligated to pay back the amount.

    If the sponsor of a legal immigrant does not pay the welfare cost, the Treasury Offset Program will take the money out of the sponsor’s taxes for that year. Federal officials said implementation of this order would begin in September.

    A senior administration official told Breitbart News that the order to enforce Clinton’s 1996 law will drive down welfare-dependent legal immigration to the U.S. which has cost American taxpayers billions over the years.

    “This is a historic, transformative action to restore the foundational principle of U.S. immigration law: that those seeking to join our society must support themselves financially,” the official said.

    “This executive action will dramatically curb ‘welfare tourism’ and protect U.S. benefits for U.S. families,” the official continued. “It will also ensure that immigrant sponsors cannot continue the practice of bringing in large numbers of welfare-dependent immigrants: because they will be financially liable. Congress passed these laws – but they were effectively never used. Now they will be.”

    The second function of the order ensures that the income a sponsor to a legal immigrant is taken into consideration when a legal immigrant is applying for federal welfare.

    Currently, only the income of legal immigrants is considered by federal agencies when the national is applying for public benefits. Under the rules set out by Clinton’s 1996 law, the Trump administration will make certain that the income of both the legal immigrant and their sponsor is considered when applying for benefits.

    “Newcomers will not be able to live on free federal healthcare, housing, and other welfare at taxpayer expense,” the senior official said.

    Study after study after study shows that harsh penalties do little. Would you risk living in a tent city if it meant a 1000x increase in living standards for your family?

    Stop paying lazy Americans to not work. Get rid of the minimum wage. Come up with sensible drug policy. These alone would drop the demand for labor so significantly that the market would address 95% of the problem, with zero enforcement mechanisms required.
    Not beating the Arpaio drum, but living in that tent city is only temporary.....until your bullshit "asylum" claim is adjudicated and you (as well as your entire family) gets sent the f**k back.

    Remember, "My country is a shithole and living there sucks" is NOT a valid asylum claim. Too bad so sad.

    We don't owe these illegal vermin ANYTHING. Our own misinterpreted laws are killing us. Change that law (good luck with the Dems in charge of the House) or do what I suggested until they get their sorry asses shipped back.

    Go back, apply at a consulate or embassy, and do it the right way. I have no problem with that.

    So now DHS, instead of trying to deport people who shouldn't be here in the first place, is actually fast-tracking them to find jobs.

    https://www.breitbart.com/economy/20...nts-into-jobs/

    The Department of Homeland Security has put hundreds of thousands of Central American migrants on a fast-track to jobs and a slow-track to deportation.
    The revelation was hidden in a brief statement by acting DHS secretary Kevin McAleenan, who told the Senate on May 23 hearing that 100 percent of migrants carrying children are released, some without asking for asylum, and are allowed to get work permits as soon as 30 days.

    The DHS is releasing the migrants on the fast-track process “because they do not have the space” to detain migrants long enough to start the deportation process, said Andrew Arthur, a former immigration judge who works at the Center for Immigration Studies, a Washington, DC-based research. Congress will not fund shelters to hold more than 2,500 migrants with children, so it is allowing the border agencies to be overwhelmed by the rush of migrants.

    The slow-track deportation process allows migrants to delay filing their likely asylum request — and so it delays the eventual rejection of the asylum claim, which is needed prior to deportation. “Rather than potential starting their asylum process while in custody [at the border], they are not going to take pleadings until they are in [subsequent] removal proceedings,” said Arthur. In contrast, the regular process allows migrants to be deported in roughly 40 days if border officials can quickly record and process asylum claims, starting with a “Credible Fear” interview.
    Meanwhile, the fast-track job process allows migrants to get work permits as quickly as 30 days after crossing the border.

    The conventional process bars migrants who ask for asylum from applying for work permits for 150 days. The conventional process also allows government officials another 30 days to approve the request, so boosting the conventional work-permit process up to 180 days. The conventional 180-day process takes six months to get a work permit — but DHS has been giving work-permits to the migrants in just one to three months.

    The fast-track/slow-track process means that employers quickly get an extra supply of tough, compliant, low-wage workers just as labor shortages are forcing companies to boost pay for Americans. The extra labor supply also reduces employers’ incentive to hire the population 12 million unemployed or underemployed Americans, some of whom are sidelined by disability, underinvestment in rural areas, or drugs.
    McAleenan suggested that the border agencies will try to delay the award of work permits to migrants. That task, however, requires getting more migrants back into the regular bureaucratic process.

    The regular process quickly assigns migrants in the deportation process. But most migrants counter by asking for asylum. In response, the ICE agents at short-term shelters near the border conduct a “Credible Fear” interview to gauge the migrants’ asylum claims. Almost 9 out of 10 migrants pass the low-bar interview (under rules set by Congress) and are then given a “Notification to Appear” at a hearing before an immigration judge. Next, migrants cite a separate law which allows them to apply for a work permit if they have not had their hearing in 150 days.

    But DHS officials are not processing the migrants via the conventional process. Instead, they are “paroling” the migrants with children into the United States even before they undergo a Credible Fear interview and get a NTA. Once released via parole, a different law allows migrants to quickly apply for a work permit. McAleenan did not say how many migrants apply for the work permits, or how long the work permits last.

    But agency data shows a huge volume of migrants getting work permits.
    The overall award of work-permits is huge — and it is roughly equal to one extra migrant worker for every 10 Americans who joined the labor force in 2017 and 2018.

    The rush of migrants has spiked in 2019 because the cartels, the migrants, the border agencies and the voters know that Congress is refusing to block the catch-and-release loopholes which are delivering hundreds of thousands of cheap workers to their political allies and their donors. The migration may reach 800,000 in the 12 months up to October. That number includes at least 400,000 extra workers, and at least 200,000 children for placement in K-12 schools used the children of America’s blue-collar communities.

    Why should this surprise us? This whole immigration shitaree exists because big business has never wanted to stop the flow.

    I just heard on the radio that the beer industry has offloaded 40,000 jobs (don't quote me on the exact number) because of the tariff on aluminum raising prices about 10%.

    If CEO's are willing to pare jobs because of a 10% increase in costs, what makes you think they would want to pay more to have a good old legal American do the job?

    Truth be known, if they could get parents to indenture their kids, that would work for most of them if it made them more money.

    It should most definitely be a two-pronged approach. Ship their sorry asses back (families included) and penalize those who hire them. By penalize I mean maybe a hefty fine the first offense, then a forfeiture of assets/prison time for a second offense. "De-magnetize" America as a local radio talk show host likes to say.
