New Bill Pushes to Cut Welfare From BOTH Legal and Illegal Immigrants: Randy Fine [WATCH]

Rep. Randy Fine is advancing legislation that would prohibit both legal and illegal immigrants from receiving welfare benefits in the United States, arguing that immigration should be rooted in freedom, opportunity, and shared American values rather than access to government assistance.

Fine outlined his position while explaining the motivation behind the bill, saying the current system incentivizes people to come to the United States for taxpayer-funded benefits rather than to contribute to the country’s economy and civic life.

“If you want to immigrate to the United States for freedom and opportunity, that’s one thing,” Fine said.

“But the problem is you’ve got too many people coming here for free stuff, which is why I’ve introduced a bill that would ban all legal immigrants from welfare, not just illegal, but legal, because you should not be coming here and then asking our children and our grandchildren to go into debt, to give you free things.”

The proposed legislation would extend existing restrictions beyond illegal aliens and apply them to legal immigrants as well, cutting off access to welfare programs.

Fine said the goal is to ensure that immigration policy does not place long-term financial burdens on future generations of Americans.

According to Fine, the bill is intended to reinforce the principle that immigration should be based on self-sufficiency and a willingness to contribute, not reliance on government aid.

“If you want free stuff, stay home,” he said.

Fine emphasized that his position is not opposed to immigration itself, but rather to what he described as abuse of the welfare system by individuals who do not share American values or intend to assimilate.

“And so if you want to come here for freedom and opportunity, if you love America, if you share our values, if you want to go to work and you want to add value, that’s a discussion that we can have,” Fine said.

He drew a sharp contrast between immigrants who seek to build a life through work and those he argues are motivated by government benefits and ideological opposition to the country.

“But if you hate America, if you want to change America, if you don’t share our values, and you don’t want to assimilate, and you’re just here to see how much free stuff you can get stay where you’re from,” Fine said.
