Trump Admin to Block Illegal Aliens from Taking Public Housing from Americans

How much are illegal aliens costing Americans? Even the housing cost alone is incredible.

Last month, I revealed that the Trump administration had moved to block illegal alien DACAers from getting taxpayer subsidized mortgages.

Under Obama, FHA rules had been bent so far backward that people who were not only non-citizens, not only non-permanent residents, but weren’t even legally here, were having taxpayers guarantee their mortgages.

The December letter by Senator Menendez, who had recently been on trial for corruption charges, Senator Booker, on whose watch the $100 million poured into Newark public schools dissipated, and Senator Cortez-Mastro, who had been accused of taking dirty money, claimed to be, “appalled that the Trump Administration would exploit a federal government program to deny Dreamers an opportunity of owning their own home.” But it was the Democrats who had exploited a federal government program meant for poor Americans to benefit not only foreigners, but illegal aliens with no right to be here.

Now HUD is moving to block illegal aliens from taking public housing meant for Americans.

It’s unfair to hundreds of thousands of Americans who are stuck on waiting lists.

The plan would scrap Clinton-era regulations that allowed illegal immigrants to sign up for assistance without having to disclose their status.

Under the new Trump rules, not only would the leaseholder using public housing have to be an eligible U.S. person, but the government would verify all applicants through the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) database, a federal system that’s used to weed illegal immigrants out of other welfare programs.

Another good move by President Trump.

This is great, but like some many things, if its not codified into law, the next lib president can just undo it. We need a friendly congress in 2020

Well, the Bamster’s aunt Zeituni took housing away from Americans.

The downside of banning illegal aliens is that they won’t be tossing used diapers out of public housing windows in NYC to celebrate “diversity”.

This should have been done 2 years ago.

The number of illegals in Section 8 housing and receiving the full suite of generous welfare benefits, often under multiple false identifies, is staggering

If the true numbers are ever revealed , Americans are going to be stunned and very POed

It’s so bad, California has forbid the fingerprinting of welfare recipients and has fought work requirements tooth and nail because any audit of the welfare rolls would show the massive welfare fraud.

The last audit of California’s LA county welfare system showed over 50% fraud rate and things are much worse now

This is just one piece of a major Government-wide rollout planned over the next few months, to deny Government benefits to illegal immigrants.

White House adviser Stephen Miller in recent weeks has said that this initiative had been studied and prepared for a long time. It is targeting what he called “welfare seeking”.

I am of the opinion that the more the benefits for illegals get cut, the fewer illegals will be around.

But we have been told they only want to come out of the shadows.
That they can’t get public benefits.

I guess this means that someone has been lying to us.
Maybe we’ll have to tune into CNN and find out the truth!

We were fighting this travesty in SoCal in the early ‘90s during the Presidency of GHW Bush. The mayor of Costa Mesa was leading the charge.

A neoconservative dimwit who was in charge of HUD flew out here and stomped on Costa Mesa, forcing them to allow illegal aliens to continue to live in taxpayer subsidized housing that should have been reserved for Americans.

That dimwit was Jack Kemp. He and Bill Bennett and GW Bush would fly out here again in 1994, to side with illegal aliens against the voters of California in the fight over Prop 187.

That’s when I knew for certain that the GOP Establishment was as bitter an enemy of grassroots America as any Democrat could be.

When Bob Dole chose Kemp as VP I voted third party. There was no way that I wanted that treasonous SOB to be in line for President. And the same with Make America Mexico Dubya. Any GOP hack that would fight for illegals over Americans had no business being President. He lived down to my low expectations.

How mean spirited and racist. Illegal aliens fought and died to preserve the Republic. They were slaves on the plantations. They suffered crossing the Rio Grande and picking tomatoes. And now they can’t even get public housing just because some racist Negros and Hispanics were born in the United States!/beyond mere sarcasm.

That is just a little too logical-thinking, IMHO. (/s)

I agree.

I just expect that (this housing situation being just one example), some corrupt work-arounds will be woven, in order to keep our good money from going to illegals.

Look for the courts to immediately block this - we have an un-elected second legislature, all wearing black robes.
