In a sweeping move designed to redefine how federal funds are allocated in relation to immigration, President Donald Trump has signed a new executive order aimed at eliminating taxpayer dollars used to “incentivize” the arrival of illegal immigrants into the United States, Announced on Thursday and signed late Wednesday, the order asserts that “taxpayer resources are used to protect the interests of American citizens, not illegal aliens,” and instructs federal and state authorities to block any program or initiative deemed to act as a “magnet” for new arrivals.
