DHS: An Ignored 1996 Clinton-Era Law Says That States Have to Report the Number of Illegals Receiving Federal Benefits Like SNAP. We're Going to Start Enforcing It Now.

The law was passed insincerely, I imagine, with both Clinton and corporate-owned fake "conservatives" pretending they didn't want to take American's tax payments and deliver them to foreign criminals.

But insincerely or not, political ploy or not, they passed it. There is no "We only passed this to con the rubes" exception to federal legislation. Look it up. I didn't, but I assume there's not one.

Finally, someone is going to actually enforce it.

States now must report undocumented immigrants to DHS or risk federal funding, DOJ says

* All states going forward must report undocumented immigrants known to be in a state to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security or risk losing federal funding for programs meant to aid low-income individuals, the Department of Justice said in a new legal opinion.
* The DOJ, in issuing the opinion, revised the Office of Legal Counsel's prior opinion from 1998, which found that only specific state agencies that administered the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families and the Supplemental Security Income programs needed to provide information to federal immigration authorities.
* "When a state chooses to participate in TANF, it accepts the obligation to report illegal aliens in the United States," Assistant Attorney General T. Elliot Gaiser said. "Tax dollars intended to help vulnerable Americans should not perversely encourage illegal entry into the United States, but rather should reinforce our laws and our borders."

The DOJ, in issuing the opinion, revised the Office of Legal Counsel's prior opinion from 1998, which found that only specific state agencies that administered the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families and the Supplemental Security Income programs needed to provide information to federal immigration authorities.
"Congress wrote this requirement plainly," Assistant Attorney General T. Elliot Gaiser of the DOJ's Office of Legal Counsel, said in a statement.
"When a state chooses to participate in TANF, it accepts the obligation to report illegal aliens in the United States," Gaiser said. "Tax dollars intended to help vulnerable Americans should not perversely encourage illegal entry into the United States, but rather should reinforce our laws and our borders."
The DOJ in a statement Wednesday said the Office of Legal Counsel's Sept. 1 opinion "explains that Congress defined 'State' broadly in the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996."
"As a result, when a state accepts federal TANF or SSI funds, the entire state government -- including all component agencies -- is bound by federal law to share information with DHS about individuals the state knows to be not lawfully present," the DOJ said.
The new opinion only applies proactively, not to past enrollments in TANF and SSI.
All 50 states, the District of Columbia and several U.S. territories participate in both programs. Federal TANF funding grants top $16.4 billion annually, according to the DOJ.

California AG Rob Bonta says he will not comply with the law because Trump is changing the law by following the wording of the law.

Gigantic mutant slothbeast "Big Tish" James says she's "reviewing" the DOJ's demand, in between fabricating new rape charges against Trump.

Breccan F. Thies of The Federalist:

As The Federalist reported, the Clinton administration took numerous actions to pave the way for illegal aliens to come into the country, especially those who offer nothing to American society and were virtually guaranteed to leech off the welfare system.
That included trashing the "public charge" rule that had governed American immigration law for at least 100 years, which said that an immigrant should not be admitted into the country if he was unlikely to be able to take care of himself without government assistance.
Now it is estimated that 59 percent of illegal immigrant households are on at least one welfare program, and 52 percent of legal immigrant households are in the same position. Meanwhile, 39 percent of native-born Americans use at least one welfare program, which is still an enormous amount, but the fact remains that the programs are for Americans, not foreigners.

Related: Mexifornia received 80% of federal aid for illegals because they wrote their own rules to make illegals eligible.

California accounted for more than 80% of all federal welfare cash assistance provided to households headed by illegal immigrants in 2024, according to a new report from the Department of Health and Human Services.
The report found that $759 million in Temporary Assistance for Needy Families cash assistance was provided to 85,277 households nationwide in which a child qualified for benefits while a parent was living in the United States illegally.
No state came close to California's share of spending, with $617.5 million. The second-place recipient, New York, received just $47.5 million--less than one-tenth of California's total.
Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, or TANF, was created to provide temporary assistance to low-income families. TANF recipients are generally required to work and are limited to 60 months of benefits over a lifetime.
Because parents living in the country illegally are generally ineligible for TANF benefits, assistance in these cases is provided on behalf of eligible children living in the household.
Unlike traditional TANF recipients, these child-only cases are not subject to federal work requirements or the program's five-year lifetime limit, allowing benefits to continue until a child turns 18.
The report's authors noted that the arrangement creates a disparity between American families receiving TANF and immigrant households receiving child-only benefits.
"The result is a striking disparity: needy American families are held to TANF's central work and time-limit rules, while households headed by immigration-status-ineligible parents can receive child-only cash assistance under a structure that bypasses those rules and can allow support to continue from birth through age 18."
freestar
The report estimated that affected households received an average of roughly $742 per month, or about $8,900 annually.
Between 2001 and 2024, approximately $18.3 billion in TANF assistance was distributed through these child-only cases, while their share of the total TANF caseload increased from 5.8% to 10%.

@iAnonPatriot
SNAP and Section 8 cost U.S. taxpayers $138 billion last year, and that is before Medicaid, SSI, and the rest. Food is expensive in part because 42 million people are buying groceries with a card someone else funded.
The damage is not only the bill. When tens of millions of people organize their month around a government check, they stop voting on the country and start voting on the benefit. Borders, crime, and debt become background noise next to the one question that matters to them: who will keep the groceries and the rent voucher flowing.
Milton Friedman put it plainly: you cannot simultaneously have free immigration and a welfare state.

PROOF Democrats have lied about illegals getting every benefit America offers, including free housing
California resident "I used to work for the county in social services" for the state
She's exposing it all, she says they qualify illegals for all benefits without any social security numbers
"I used to work in the social services department, so any public benefits, we're talking Medicaid, food stamps, cash aid, disability, unemployment, veteran service, housing I did all the things"
"Here's the loophole. If somebody without a Social Security number, so somebody who's undocumented, applies for benefits, And they do qualify for benefits, by the way. They qualify for
- Full Medicaid
- Housing
- Migrant Head Start. That's fully paid childcare
- If these people have any kids that are US citizens, meaning that they're born here, then they apply for benefits for their kids
- $1,200 per kid plus $275 per person cash food stamps.
That doesn't include housing, all the other benefits they get. And here in California, they don't even care. They don't even hide it.
I used to have women and some men that would come in straight up with their nails did, their hair done blonde, bleach blonde, Gucci bags, Gucci glasses, driving up on Escalades, chewing gum super loud, saying, "Where's my welfare check?" I used to live in a neighborhood where 70% of the people around me were undocumented, and man, did they live the life. New cars, parties every weekend"
"Meanwhile, US citizens, we don't qualify for sickity shit. We don't qualify for nada, nothing. It was so common where the women or the moms in my community that were undocumented, they wouldn't work.
They would have their own community of stay-at-home moms while US citizen moms would have to go out and work because we can't afford to live"
"We need to do better. The state of California needs to do better. We all need to get on the same page here"
Here's more information not mentioned:
- California expanded full-scope Medi-Cal to undocumented adults regardless of status, covering doctor visits, hospital care, dental, and more. As of 2025, over l.7 MILLION undocumented illegals were enrolled
- Undocumented parents qualify for benefits on behalf of their US citizen anchor babies. This includes CalFresh (food stamps), cash aid, and up to $1,200+ per child plus extras
- California runs Cash Assistance Program for Immigrants. This is a 100% state-funded program giving monthly cash to aged or disabled non-citizens ineligible for federal SSI due to immigration status
You are literally paying for illegals to retire in America and get checks forever
You should be furious.

50 Uncle Sams knows who is here legally or illegally because they PAY TAXES!!!!!!! Yet they don’t qualify for welfare benefits

Undocumented immigrants who hold jobs that are taxed are what..? Paying. Taxes. They contribute billions, but thanks to the hate that is in many uneducated Americans hearts, they will be gone and the "well" will dry up

The States do not know where undocumented immigrants are. When you get a driver's license "not for federal purposes" no one asks you about your immigration status. this is again flooding the zone with shit to make States handing over voter rolls to the regime.

It’s fake news to scare immigrants do not believe this. New York State pays so much tax for the federal government that literally every southern states will go hungry if New York stops paying taxes to the federal gov.

I’m confused, because illegal residents are unable to apply for any type of assistance and would be stupid to do so?

lllinois has some really robust laws against information sharing with ICE. State law explicitly limits when immigration status can be recorded. I can’t see how a court could order Illinois to release records.

It’s sickening to watch American citizens who are elderly, disabled or just down on their luck get pushed to the aside because of Democrats love for illegal immigrants. These illegals are also brazen in their grab of benefits. You can see them in the grocery stores loading up their carts on the taxpayers dime while elderly people are picking from the weekly sale flyer. What people don’t realize is that taxpayer funded giveaway is driving up the price of housing, food and everything else they consume for Americans. It’s also the case in NJ. The entire op by Democrats is disgraceful. It’s also designed to get their votes. Why else would you do this to your alleged constituents and fight any attempt to secure elections?

69 Step #1) It's illegal for undocumented immigrants to vote, and it's not happening.

Step #2) There are a few undocumented immigrants voting, but it's not enough to change electoral outcomes.

Step #3) There are undocumented immigrants voting in a few cities and states, but they pay taxes and deserve representation.

Step #4) It's racist to deny undocumented immigrants the right to vote.

YMMV

91 Why did it take two years to realize that the 1996 welfare reform bill did this?
These guys don't even know what the existing laws are and they're eager to add more? Dopes.
Anyways, the democrat argument for illegal immigration (the lie they tell us) is that we need the labor, nobody white wants to do the jobs, they grow the economy because everyone needs a car a tv a refrigerator...
What actually happens is they use so much in benefits that would have gone to citizens that no amount of labor-added value can make up for what it lost, at least not from the governments ledgers.

There's the rub. Those illegals who do add to the economic output add to business earnings more than the tax coffers, so we the people subsidize not only the illegals but the businesses who profit from them.

When someone says, "Congress must cough up massive amounts of money to pay for my problem", I hear that as, "you, Oglebay, must cough up massive amounts of money for me, you stupid, useless hick."

The state takes may money from me at gunpoint, rams the butt of the gun into my ribs and laughs as I writhe in the dirt. Then the money goes into some program that does nothing I think needs doing just so it can be laundered back into the pockets of the state mafia.

Oh well, off to the bank to deposit my social security cheque!

97 Up until the 1970's, the Democrats base was primarily blue collar, white unionized voters and their families.
Then, the Democrats abandoned those voters for urban Blacks that were dependent on Welfare and could be reliably counted on to vote Democrat.
Now, the Democrats have deserted urban Blacks and built a new base of Brown immigrants, legal or not, that they shovel untold billions of tax dollars towards, in many cases thru fraud. This permanent underclass provides cheap services to rich progressives.

Federal immigration officials are making their presence known across Indianapolis.

Videos appearing to show ICE agents making arrests are spreading online.

U.S. Rep. André Carson, who represents Indianapolis, is also asking more information about the reported ICE operations.

Carson is asking officials to provide his office with numbers on who is detained, their criminal histories, ICE’s current policies and where detainees are being held.

He's also asking federal immigration officials whether local police departments are helping with the effort.

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said its officers are not assisting with ICE operations.

Her parents came her from Canada. When my wife's parents moved to American, they had to have a sponsor who took financial responsibility for them in case the job my late father-in-law had lined up didn't work out.

In other words, the sponsor was on the financial hook if my in-laws became deadbeats. The system at the time did not allow immigrants to collect from the welfare system.

147 When you throw a block party, with drinks and food, you have to limit it to the fcking block. Because if you don't, you will attract the whole subdivision and their mfking relatives . . .

The US declared a block party and invited the WORLD. The WORLD saw the free shit and moved here. A lot of them did not decide to open businesses, unless you consider drugs or human trafficking a business.

Its not wrong to say that the entire situation is a dumpster fire. That doesn't mean immigration should be zero, it does mean they need to clean it up, and enforce the laws. The illegals aren't the best of the best. Face it. Illegal immigration is dragging the country down.

The poorest state in the U.S., Mississippi, still has a higher per-capita GDP than the United Kingdom, which is heavily goosed by international finance center London. Imagine if New York came in last, despite having Wall Street! We could end all Federal welfare (not social insurance) and student loan programs, leaving them entirely up to the states, and even Mississippi would be juuuust fiiiine, compared to the rest of the world.

In fact, I have argued (and will continue to) that we should do exactly that. Keep Social Security and Medicare, and end all the block grant programs, to be replaced with nothing. They were the replacement for the Federally administered welfare programs, which were terrible, and it turns out that states are terrible too -- especially when the money they're spending comes from another entity's budget.

The legal immigration pipeline is being strangled as much as legally possible now.

https://x.com/derzum_/status/
2095517123409789335

The administration can only do so much on its own, though, since certain visa classes are "shall issue" as outlined in statute. Further restrictions have to come from Congress.

It took about 40 years of agitation and effort to get the 1926 immigration ban passed by Congress. So, not everything being done in 17 months of Trump's second administration is kind of a high bar to clear.

This is most likely true, however there is nothing that says the IRS has to accept fake or mistaken SSN, for example, to show employer qualification for write offs on the wages paid.
In fact, in strict accounting the IRS should reject such write offs to employers, unitl the employer can get the employee to stop falsifying the employers quarterly returns.

225 Again, it appears the legislation requires states to report known illegals. The state simply doesn't inquire so it doesn't know. Viola.

Peaches! That's what we used to call 'em. Smooth and pink with just a little fuzz. Get them all wet and juicy. Never had a Canadian one, though. Probably apologize afterwards!

- Full Medicaid
- Housing
- Migrant Head Start. That's fully paid childcare
- If these people have any kids that are US citizens, meaning that they're born here, then they apply for benefits for their kids
- $1,200 per kid plus $275 per person cash food stamps."

As bad as I thought the ripping off of Americans by illegals, (and Dems) this and those other reports are even worse than I thought. Deport them all. Every single one.

247 is that it is now abundantly clear beyond any doubt that the Democrat Party favors -- in every respect -- illegal aliens over American citizens.
-----
Been that way for a LONG time. The difference is only one of the willingness to publicly acknowledge this, with a hearty "Fuck You, America!". This is their party platform now, among other things.

They've managed to monetize illegal migration. It's really quite elegant in a way. They should be hanged for this of course, but you have to give credit where credit is due.

Nah.

That just guarantees that Hillary kills him before the election, which would only drive up leftist votes as they 'honor his memory.'

251 Eric Daugherty-
Rep. Brandon Gill (R-FL) just filed legislation that would BAN SNAP recipients from using their taxpayer-funded welfare dollars at restaurants

GILL: "Taxpayers are footing the bill for fast food through SNAP. More than $524 MILLION was spent at restaurants through this loophole in just two years."

"I introduced legislation to end the fast-food loophole and refocus SNAP on nutritious groceries for struggling Americans."

252 In other words, the sponsor was on the financial hook if my in-laws became deadbeats. The system at the time did not allow immigrants to collect from the welfare system.
Posted by: Blake - semi lurker in marginal standing at September 03, 2026 12:54 PM (eGzf1)

That's how it worked for my parents as well. My mom and dad came here from Germany in 1956; they had to be sponsored. I'm glad he didn't live long enough to see what the system is now. Basically every bit of income tax i've ever paid in my life has gone to fraud.

Stupid. Why would the number be other than 0?

Then if a single illegal is found with a benefit check the reporting agencies are liable for fraud charges.
