We're talking welfare, correct? I've been searching for a reference regarding Obama reversing the five year law enacted by Clinton in 1996. I remember 1996, and right wing conservatives screaming bloody murder that Clinton was some crazed pinko communist (how quickly the right forgets that used to be a bad thing, Russia's fantastic now!) when he was actually pretty center.

Since when do most conservatives think that Russia is fantastic now? Since the title of the topic has the word immigrants in it I don't know why this topic was started in the illegal immigration forum in the first place. Even if illegal aliens are included in the mix I believe they never had to wait 5 years to collect on behalf of their U.S. born kids.

From all of the sources that I checked, it seems that Trump either was not aware of the 1996 law, or he intends to broaden it and make it apply to previously exempt persons including refugees, people from Cuba and Haiti, and green-card holders

Eh...what? The republican controlled congress passed the 5 year limit and the work requirement law and Clinton signed it into law. The only ones I remember that went ballistic were democrats who opposed the law.....The fact is the Obama administration simply ignored the law.
If anyone has forgotten that simple fact... it was you.
That's not true. I live in California. The only benefit extended to undocumented citizens is that children are eligible for medical care regardless of citizenship.
