JUST IN: Trump Orders Major Audit To Block Illegals From Cashing In On Benefits
The distribution of taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal aliens remains a contentious issue.
Many argue that programs like Section 8 housing and food assistance should be reserved for American citizens and legal residents.
In line with this, President Trump has launched an audit to ensure compliance with laws prohibiting illegal aliens from accessing public benefits.
The audit reviews at least 28 federal programs across multiple agencies, including the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program, Medicaid, Head Start, and food stamp initiatives.
HUD Secretary Scott Turner has directed public housing authorities to verify recipients’ citizenship or legal status within thirty days of notice.
This effort aims to enforce accountability in a system where illegal benefit use is thought to be widespread. Trump emphasizes that the audit is a solution-oriented step to protect taxpayer interests.
