Senator Bernie Sanders and 12 colleagues urged the administration to simplify access to public assistance programs.
Quiver AI Summary
Senator Bernie Sanders, alongside 12 colleagues, has sent a letter to key Trump administration officials urging the reversal of new guidance that requires states to verify immigration status for public assistance programs. They argue that this policy adds bureaucratic hurdles that could jeopardize access to essential services like education and healthcare.
The senators described the guidance as "cruel and targeted," stating it would undermine decades of progress and harm vulnerable communities. They argue it could lead to racial profiling and reduced access to programs, affecting millions of Americans, particularly those with U.S. citizen children.
In their letter, they emphasize the need for continuity in services and express concern that these policies would divert resources away from providing necessary assistance to those in need. The letter highlights various programs across health, education, and labor that would be negatively impacted by the changes.
