1. Inelegibilidad Federal para Inmigrantes Indocumentados.
La ley federal prohíbe explícitamente que los inmigrantes indocumentados reciban la mayoría de los beneficios públicos, incluidos SNAP (Programa de Asistencia Nutricional Suplementaria) y Medicaid. La elegibilidad está estrictamente limitada a ciudadanos estadounidenses y ciertos no ciudadanos con estatus legal.
- Undocumented immigrants do not get snap or medicaid & they do they qualify for federal assistance programs.
- Undocumented immigrants are not eligible for benefits, snap, social security, medicare or medicaid or any other assistance at the federal level.
- Undocumented non-citizens are not and have never been eligible for snap.
- To receive snap or medicaid benefits you have to prove you’re a citizen. Undocumented folks don’t qualify. This is total fantasy.
- To apply for medicaid, snap, fafsa, etc you need a valid, us federal government issued social security number.
2. La Desinformación Política y el Mito del Abuso de Beneficios.
El archivo documenta la frustración ante la constante difusión de mentiras por parte de políticos y figuras de derecha (MAGA/GOP) que afirman falsamente que los inmigrantes indocumentados están "abusando" de los programas SNAP y Medicaid, utilizando esta narrativa para justificar recortes.
- Get tired of maga/gop lies. Undocumented immigrants do not get snap or medicaid.
- Illegal immigrants can’t get medicaid, snap or any other entitlement you wanna throw out there. That is a republican myth.
- They are flat lying to their “uneducated voters”. There is not one federal program that affords illegal immigrants federal healthcare benefits or snap benefits.
- The myth that undocumented immigrants are taking over was racist propagandacreated to convince poor white folks to cut their own safety net.
- Far-right influencers and extremists are incorrectly claiming that immigrants are the main recipients of food stamps.
3. Impacto de los Recortes en Ciudadanos y Residentes Legales.
Los recortes propuestos a SNAP y Medicaid, a menudo justificados bajo la premisa de eliminar a los "ilegales", en realidad perjudican a millones de ciudadanos estadounidenses, ancianos, discapacitados, niños y residentes legales con estatus humanitario (refugiados y asilados).
- Undocumented immigrants are not and have never been eligible for federal snap benefits. So when republicans cut 186 billion from snap and when they slow-roll funding for snap, theyre hurting american citizens only.
- My elderly aunt is disabled, she has huntington’s and cannot work. She’s been purged. That’s truth.
- The bill would also deny food benefits to all non-citizens who are not lawful permanent residents (green card holders). This includes people who are refugees & asylees.
- There are american-born children of undocumented immigrants who do receive medicaid or snap.
- Almost 90 percent of snap recipients are american-born citizens. 1.1 percent of recipients are refugees and 3.3 percent are other noncitizens.
4. Rigurosidad del Proceso de Solicitud de Beneficios.
Los usuarios y trabajadores sociales enfatizan que el proceso de solicitud y mantenimiento de beneficios como SNAP es extremadamente riguroso, requiriendo documentación exhaustiva y verificación de ciudadanía, lo que hace que el fraude por parte de indocumentados sea casi imposible.
- It’s hard enough for poor americans to get this. Jfc these people are stupid.
- I would like every single person who claims undocumented immigrants get snap or other benefits to go apply for those programs. I want to see the look on their faces when they see the actual requirements people have to meet before they can qualify.
- I’m a retired income maintenance caseworker who processed snap and medicaid applications so i can attest to that. The very first thing we checked for was citizenship status.
- I worked 2 yrs at the county determining eligibility for medicaid/ snap. I went through 4 months of rigorous training to vet applicants.
- In the past five years, there has been just one case of an undocumented person indicted for snap-benefits fraud in america.
