. . . .and also keep track of welfare benefits going to illegal immigrant households.
What good does it do to simply “keep track of” the billions of dollars illegals receive? I would prefer to see ALL tax-funded benefits denied. If the parents are in this country illegally, they should not be eligible to receive welfare on behalf of their children.

I like most of the proposal but like Benicar I question the part about keeping track of benefits that go to illegal immigrant households. Just eliminate them altogether. If a parent can't provide proof that they are here legally then the household gets nothing.
