Trump Administration to Asylum Seekers: Find a Homeless Shelter

As the Trump administration readies a plan to bar many asylum seekers from working, it has some advice for them: Start getting familiar with “homelessness resources.”

Currently, asylum seekers are allowed to apply for work permits 150 days after submitting their asylum applications. A new rule released Monday by the Department of Homeland Security would extend the waiting period to a full year, and it would prohibit work permits for asylum seekers who cross the border without authorization, which is often the only way for them to avoid waiting in dangerous border cities to request asylum at official ports of entry.

In response to a draft of the rule released in November, critics wrote in public comments that the rule could force asylum seekers into homelessness. DHS responded to those comments in the final version of the plan released Monday: “Asylum seekers who are concerned about homelessness during the pendency of their employment authorization waiting period should become familiar with the homelessness resources provided by the state where they intend to reside.”...

Keeping your asses in your home country is another way.

Start getting familiar with “homelessness resources.”

That's not much of a disincentive. In San Francisco, the homeless can get rooms at the Intercontinental Mark Hopkins Hotel on Nob Hill at taxpayer expense - no joke.

Real, legitimate asylum seekers would be happy with our homeless shelters. Even that would be a paradise to them.

This should be part of a Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement bill, missing since 1986 ONE TIME amnesty. The List of Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement, missing since 1986 goes like this -

1) southern barrier;

2) require eVerify to hire;

3) end all chain migration;

4) birthright per Minor v. Happersett (plural parents);

5) end work visas;

6) 10-year moratorium on all new applications for citizenship (40 years to allow workplace automation effects on downsizing population);

7) Set up an illegal aliens’ victim restitution fund.

Enactment of these provisions will motivate illegal aliens to SELF-deport, and remove colonizadors from our welfare rolls.
