Illegal immigrants do not get free money

If they are getting financial assistance it means they have qualified for a program that provides it. If they qualify for a program, that means they have begun a legal process and qualify to be here during said process.

Further, the existence of these programs do not preclude Americans from getting assistance. If we cut all immigrant aid programs that money would not automatically go to veterans, disaster relief, or anything else for native born citizens. It would take separate government action to fund those programs. And since those programs are not already being funded, the people you keep electing to represent you have no desire to prioritize funding them. Otherwise it would be done by now.

We can debate whether certain programs should exist or not. But each program stands on its own. This anti-immigration scapegoating is just that. Nobody is going to help you after these programs are ended. The money won't be freed up for people who need it. Not veterans. Not disaster relief. It will go to more tax cuts for the same people who ship our jobs abroad and lay us off at the smallest economic tremor.
