Mr. President. the question here is. who should pay for assistance to a new immigrant? Should the sponsor who brought the person in the United States and made the promise. the affidavit of support. or should the taxpayer? The bill before the Senate requires that all means testedI am talking only about meanstested welfare programsinclude the income of the sponsor. the person who promised their relative would never use public assistance. when determining whether a new arrival is eligible for assistance. That is as simple as it can be. The only exceptions are for soup kitchens. school lunch and WIC.
