Senate Bill Drops to End Welfare for Non-Citizens � Dems Are Losing It
2026-08-31
[RedState] American taxpayers are sick of blowing trillions of dollars financing the reckless spending of the federal government.

If you want to know why America has an "affordability crisis," we need to start there.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has a fairly simple idea for cutting at least some of the bill: Stop handing federal welfare benefits to people who aren't American citizens.

The Kentucky Republican is pushing the End Welfare for Noncitizens Act, legislation that would bar federal funds from providing TANF, Medicaid, SNAP and other federal benefits to illegal immigrants, refugees and asylees.

"American families are struggling to make ends meet while Washington funds welfare for people who broke our immigration laws to get here," Paul wrote.

"My End Welfare for Non-Citizens Act ends that by cutting off TANF, Medicaid, and SNAP for illegal immigrants, refugees, and asylees."
