They say legal, but, what they mean are illegal/fake asylum seekers in the People’s Republik Of Oregon
Oregon sues feds, saying USDA’s new SNAP guidance cuts legal immigrants
Oregon is suing the Trump administration over changes to the nation’s food assistance program, arguing that new federal guidance unlawfully blocks certain groups of legal immigrants from accessing food aid.
Twenty-one other states joined Oregon in filing the lawsuit Wednesday in federal court in Eugene, arguing that the U.S. Department of Agriculture overstepped its authority when it issued an Oct. 31 memo telling states to cut off benefits for people who have long been eligible for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP.
The dispute centers on changes Congress made in July through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which limited SNAP eligibility for certain noncitizens in temporary immigration categories.
In the lawsuit, Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield and the other Democratic attorneys general said the USDA memo goes further than what Congress approved and effectively blocks many lawful permanent residents from the SNAP program even though they qualify under the law.
Those include refugees, asylum seekers and people admitted under humanitarian programs once they obtain a green card and meet the program’s income and residency rules.
So, now we’re supposed to feed every person who streams into the US and makes claims? People who do it the right way when apply for citizenship or a work visa must show that they can take care of themselves and are ineligible for government assistance. That’s the terms.
Remember, most of those claiming asylum are, in fact, illegal aliens.
If we are going to have welfare at all, it should be for American citizens only.
I’m old enough to remember when claims of illegal invaders getting welfare were derided by the oh-so-truthful left as a conspiracy theory.
Because the left is nothing if not truthful. They would never lie to us.
What Would Jesus Do? Hypocrites…
Again with another rhetorical question, hey Rimjob?
It highlights your lack of intelligent thought.
I love how Piggy Pajama Boy, a Truthful Leftist if there ever was one, trots out an “argument” that wouldn’t work on him — especially since he’s a raving lunatic Christophobe — yet thinks it would work on us.
Of course, the Left are collectivists, so even if Piggy here didn’t himself call welfare for illegals a conspiracy theory, he is guilty because if one leftist said it, they all said it. And now, because of the collective, he finds himself in the position of not only admitting this particular conspiracy theory is happening, but that it’s good.
Which is why he’s triggered. Guilty as sin this Piggy is.
Perhaps, just perhaps, we might not take too seriously that question, coming as it does from the man who wrote:
Just as I thought, christianists such as dana et al, pick and choose their religious tenets based on their prejudices.
