President Trump signed an executive order targeting federal benefits for undocumented migrants in the U.S. The order aims to identify and eliminate benefits deemed improper use of taxpayer resources. While undocumented immigrants are largely ineligible for such benefits, the directive emphasizes a crackdown on illegal immigration and the funding of sanctuary policies. Additionally, the White House contended that undocumented migrants, though often contributing to the Social Security system, utilized various welfare programs, criticizing the Biden administration for alleged financial support to illegal entrants.
The order was the latest in a flurry of actions Mr. Trump has taken on immigration since the start of his second term, including directives to prevent people from crossing into the United States illegally.
The White House said Wednesday, without providing details, that undocumented migrants have qualified for various federal welfare programs, and accused the Biden administration of spending billions on supporting people who have entered the country illegally.
