Trump in Iowa: President calls for barring immigrants from welfare for five
years
President Trump announced Wednesday night that he will soon ask Congress to
pass legislation banning immigrants from accessing public assistance within
five years of entering the U.S.
“The time has come for new immigration rules that say ... those seeking
immigration into our country must be able to support themselves financially
and should not use welfare for a period of at least five years," Trump told
a campaign-style rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Trump's proposal would build on the Personal Responsibility and Work
Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, which allows federal authorities to
deport immigrants who become public dependents within five years of their
arrival. Many of that law’s provisions were rolled back during the George W
. Bush and Barack Obama administrations, but Trump's proposal would make
more categories of federal benefits off-limits to immigrants.
Trump's proposal would also prevent the admission of people who are likely
to become so-called "public charges" within five years of their arrival. The
concept of "public charge" has been part of U.S. immigration law for over a
century. It allows the government to bar entry to individuals who are
likely to seek public assistance. Trump is expected to propose toughening up
the rules regarding “public charge” and ensuring that they are enforced.
The administration circulated a draft executive order to make Trump's
proposed changes earlier this year. However, Trump's remarks Wednesday
indicated that he wants Congress to codify his plan into law.
