The Trump admin is considering a proposal to deny citizenship or green cards to _legal_ immigrants, if the immigrant has received any form of public welfare, including getting health insurance through Obamacare. The proposal, being spearheaded by (surprise!) Stephen Miller, is still being worked out, but: > [@NBC News](#): > > …based on a recent draft seen last week and described to NBC News, immigrants living legally in the U.S. who have ever used or whose household members have ever used Obamacare, children’s health insurance, food stamps and other benefits could be hindered from obtaining legal status in the U.S. > > Immigration lawyers and advocates and public health researchers say it would be the biggest change to the legal immigration system in decades and estimate that more than 20 million immigrants could be affected.

No, that can’t be right. I’ve been assured multiple times that Republicans only objection to certain immigrants is that they’re here _illegally_. If they’d waited their turn and gone through the legal process of coming to America they’d be welcomed with open arms. Check the article again. You must have missed something. ---

The proposed change would deny citizenship to anyone who have ever used, or whose household members have ever used, programs such as children’s health insurance, food stamps and other benefits. As immigration lawyers and advocates have stated, “any policy forcing millions of families to choose between the denial of status and food or health care would exacerbate serious problems such as hunger, unmet health needs, child poverty and homelessness, with lasting consequences for families’ wellbeing and long-term success and community prosperity.” In my opinion, this change would only discourage hardworking newcomers (who contribute so much good to our economy and culture) from following the proper, legal paths toward residency and eventual citizenship. Thank you for considering this important matter." ---

This is terrifying for us. My wife is a permanent resident and we wanted to push for her citizenship next year. AND for the first time in my life I took “advantage” of unemployment and Obama Care last year while transitioning to a freelance software developer after working for over a decade as one in a regular 9 to 5. So now we could be in serious trouble. I hate that fucking, vampire looking, INCEL, racist sack of shit that is Miller with every fiber of my being. ---

Aside: Why is Obamacare being lumped in with “public welfare”? Don’t people understand that Obamacare is a directive for people to buy \*\*PRIVATE \*\*health insurance from \*\*PRIVATE \*\*health insurance companies? Obamacare is NOT a government health insurance program and never has been. This is apart from the pure Republican evil behind this attack on legal residents. ---
