Trump’s budget takes aim at illegal immigrants by limiting tax credits

Trump’s budget would limit eligibility for the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit to recipients “who are authorized to work in the U.S.”

.. Together, changes to those two programs alone are estimated to save about $40 billion over a decade.

.. The program — commonly known as food stamps — would see a $193 billion cut under Trump’s proposal.

.. Mulvaney said the EITC and child credit would not be available to those without a Social Security number.
