Trump Promises ‘Road to Citizenship’ for DACA Illegal Aliens
4:52
President Trump says he will be signing “a very major immigration bill” within the next month that provides a “road to citizenship” to the roughly 800,000 illegal aliens who are enrolled in former President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
During an interview with Telemundo on Friday, Trump said he is working on a comprehensive immigration plan that will allow hundreds of thousands of DACA illegal aliens to remain permanently in the U.S. and eventually obtain American citizenship.
Trump said the plan would be unveiled “over the next four weeks.” He went on to say:
I’m going to do a big executive order. I have the power to do it as president. And I’m going to make DACA a part of it. But we put it in and we’re probably then going to be taking it out. We’re working out the legal complexities right now, but I’m going to be signing a very major immigration bill as an executive order. I’m going to make DACA a part of it.
Trump continued:
No, what I’m going to do is that they’re going to [be] part of a much bigger bill on immigration. It’s going to be a very big bill, a very good bill, and merit-based bill, and it will include DACA, and I think people are going to be very happy.In the meantime, we’ll put it in, we’ll take it out… I think people are going to be very happy with it, but one of the aspects of the bill, which frankly, nobody knows about until right now because I told no other report[ers], so you have breaking news. Congratulations. But one of the aspects of the bill is going to be DACA. We’re going to have a road to citizenship.
Trump said recent Supreme Court rulings give him “tremendous powers” over immigration:
If you look at the Supreme Court ruling, they gave the president tremendous powers when they said that you could take in, in this case, 700,000 or so people, so they gave powers. Based on the powers that they gave, I’m going to be doing an immigration bill. One of the aspects of the bill that you will be very happy with, and that a lot of people will be, including me and a lot of Republicans, by the way, will be DACA. It gives them a road to citizenship.

The remarks come after the Supreme Court ruled last month that the Trump administration could not end Obama’s DACA program as they had requested and would need to refile paperwork to do so. At the time, Trump said he would quickly be refiling the paperwork to permanently end DACA.
Trump slammed House and Senate Democrats for failing to work with him on DACA amnesty legislation. He said:
I’m taking care of DACA. I had a deal with the Democrats and they broke the deal. The DACA could have been taken care of two years ago, but the Democrats broke the deal. All of a sudden they just broke it for no reason. Actually, they had a court case that slightly went their way, and they said, ‘Oh, let’s not talk about the deal anymore.’ You remember that. We talked about it.
In a statement to Breitbart News, White House Deputy Press Secretary Judd Deere confirmed the president is working on an executive order related to immigration.
“As the President announced today, he is working on an executive order to establish a merit-based immigration system to further protect U.S. workers,” Deere said.
“Furthermore, the President has long said he is willing to work with Congress on a negotiated legislative solution to DACA, one that could include citizenship, along with strong border security and permanent merit-based reforms. This does not include amnesty,” Deere said. “Unfortunately, Democrats have continually refused these offers as they are opposed to anything other than totally open borders.”
A DACA amnesty would put more citizen children of illegal aliens — known as “anchor babies” — on federal welfare, as Breitbart News reported, while American taxpayers would be left potentially with a $26 billion bill.
Additionally, about one-in-five DACA illegal aliens, after an amnesty, would end up on food stamps, while at least one-in-seven would go on Medicaid.
Any plan to give amnesty to DACA illegal aliens that does not also include provisions to halve legal immigration levels — the U.S. admits about 1.2 million legal immigrants a year at the expense of America’s working and middle class — would give amnestied illegal aliens the opportunity to bring an unlimited number of foreign relatives to the country.
At the southern border, a DACA amnesty has the potential to trigger a border surge that could triple the number of illegal aliens pouring through the border. Since DACA’s inception, more than 2,100 recipients of the program have been kicked off because they were found to either be criminals or gang members.
As
Breitbart News has reported,
U.S. households headed by foreign-born residents use nearly twice the welfare
of households headed by native-born Americans.
For example, a DACA amnesty would cost American taxpayers about $26 billion, more than the border wall, and that does not include the money taxpayers would have to fork up to subsidize the legal immigrant relatives of DACA illegal aliens.

THE NEW PRIVILEGED CLASS: Illegals!
This is why you work From Jan - May paying taxes to the government
....with the rest of the calendar year is money for you and your family.
Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children.
He takes a job for $5.00 or 6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he
pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax
Return, with his fake Social Security number, he gets an "earned income
credit" of up to $3,200..... free.
He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent.
He qualifies for food stamps.
He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.
His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school.
He requires bilingual teachers and books.
He qualifies for relief from high energy bills.
If they are or become, aged, blind or disabled, they qualify for
SSI.
Once qualified for SSI they can qualify for Medicare. All of this
is at (our) taxpayer's expense.
He doesn't worry about car insurance, life insurance, or
homeowners insurance.
Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed
material.
He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour
in benefits.
Working Americans are lucky to have $5.00 or $6.00/hour left after
Paying their bills and his.
The American taxpayers also pay for increased crime, graffiti and
trash clean-up.
Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT! Wake up people!

This annual income for an impoverished American family is
$10,000 less than the more than $34,500 in federal funds which are spent on
each unaccompanied minor border crosser.
A study by Tom Wong
of the University of California at San Diego discovered that more than 25
percent of DACA-enrolled illegal aliens in the program have anchor babies. That
totals about 200,000 anchor babies who are the children of DACA-enrolled
illegal aliens. This does not include the anchor babies of DACA-qualified
illegal aliens. JOHN BINDER

Simultaneously, illegal immigration next year is on track
to soar to the highest level in a decade, with a potential 600,000
border crossers expected.

Exclusive–Steve Camarota: Every Illegal Alien Costs Americans
$70K Over Their Lifetime
Every illegal alien, over the
course of their lifetime, costs American taxpayers about $70,000, Center for
Immigration Studies Director of Research Steve Camarota says.
During an interview with SiriusXM Patriot’s Breitbart
News Daily, Camarota said his research has revealed the
enormous financial burden that illegal immigration has on America’s working and
middle class taxpayers in terms of public services, depressed wages, and
welfare.
“In a person’s lifetime, I’ve estimated that an illegal border
crosser might cost taxpayers … maybe over $70,000 a year as a net cost,”
Camarota said. “And that excludes the cost of their U.S.-born children, which
gets pretty big when you add that in.”
LISTEN:
“Once [an illegal alien] has a child, they can receive cash
welfare on behalf of their U.S.-born children,” Camarota explained. “Once they
have a child, they can live in public housing. Once they have a child, they can
receive food stamps on behalf of that child. That’s how that works.”
Camarota said the education levels of illegal aliens, border
crossers, and legal immigrants are largely to blame for the high level of
welfare usage by the f0reign-born population in the U.S., noting that new
arrivals tend to compete for jobs against America’s poor and working class
communities.
In past waves of mass immigration, Camarota said, the U.S. did
not have an expansive welfare system. Today’s ever-growing welfare system,
coupled with mass illegal and legal immigration levels, is “extremely
problematic,” according to Camarota, for American taxpayers.
The RAISE Act — reintroduced in the
Senate by Senators Tom Cotton (R-AR), David Perdue (R-GA), and
Josh Hawley (R-MO) — would cut legal immigration levels in half and convert the
immigration system to favor well-educated foreign nationals, thus relieving
American workers and taxpayers of the nearly five-decade-long wave of booming
immigration. Currently, mass legal immigration redistributes the
wealth of working and middle class Americans to the country’s top
earners.
“Virtually none of that existed in 1900 during the last great
wave of immigration, when we also took in a number of poor people. We didn’t
have a well-developed welfare state,” Camarota continued:
We’re not going to stop [the welfare state] tomorrow. So in
that context, bringing in less educated people who are poor is extremely problematic
for public coffers, for taxpayers in a way that it wasn’t in 1900 because the
roads weren’t even paved between the cities in 1900. It’s just a totally
different world. And that’s the point of the RAISE Act is to sort of
bring in line immigration policy with the reality say of a large government …
and a welfare state. [Emphasis added]
The immigrants are not all coming to get welfare and they don’t
immediately sign up, but over time, an enormous fraction sign their
children up. It’s likely the case that of the U.S.-born children of
illegal immigrants, more than half are signed up for Medicaid — which
is our most expensive program. [Emphasis added]
As Breitbart News has reported, U.S. households
headed by foreign-born residents use nearly twice the welfare of households
headed by native-born Americans.
Every year the U.S. admits more than 1.5 million foreign
nationals, with the vast majority deriving from chain migration. In 2017, the
foreign-born population reached a record high of 44.5
million. By 2023, the Center for Immigration Studies estimates that the legal
and illegal immigrant population of the U.S. will make up nearly 15
percent of the entire U.S. population.
