You can´t work, and you can´t get assistance. If you don´t starve to death in the first year, then you can start looking for work.

Oh, this is good… So don’t bother seeking asylum unless you’ve got enough in savings to cover one year of food, lodging, healthcare…

And if you’re that well off, you probably aren’t trying to get asylum, because you’re living like a king back in your home country…

I think the “Penny Per Minute” fee to breathe United States oxygen is a nice touch.

Everyone in this administration who are creating these atrocious policies, from Trump on down, are the very definition of evil.

I’m still wondering which jobs the MAGAts currently hold that are overrun by illegal immigrants.

I don’t see any MAGATs willing to clean hotel rooms, pick produce, maintain swimming pools, spread asphalt, expose themselves daily to landscaping chemicals and the like.

So tell me which jobs the immigrants are taking.

Restricting refugees ability to work eh?
Welp, so much for the “land of opportunity”.
It’s my considered opinion trump should be deported back to Germany. I suspect his grandfather and donald’s mother were illegals.

Well of course they’re taking summer jobs from local high school students who just can’t wait to get out in the fields at 6 AM on a hot Sunday morning to pick peppers all day on a per bushel pay scale.

Basically, they only want to admit wealthy dictators on the lam in the wake of revolutions.

As always, it’s all about the wanton cruelty.

Also, this doubles as an engagement gift for President Miller and his soon-to-be bride, Vampira.

So, if you want to work, you’re not allowed.

If you’re unable to work, it’s required.

Wouldn’t it be simpler to replace the Emma Lazarus poem with a “Stay The Hell Out” billboard?

It’s the immigration equivalent of stress positions or jail cells arranged so you can neither sit down nor stand up all the way. Torture, in other words. This for people who by definition have it pretty tough at home. Because if this administration is too weak to push everybody around they’ll damn well start with the most vulnerable people in the world. That which you did to the least of these, you Bible-thumping monsters.

I’m sorry, but she’s bloody well welcome to it.

Another case of a job no American would be caught dead doing.
