Court records show #Chicago #immigration raid was about #squatters, not Venezuelan #gangs
Newly revealed arrest records show that a high-profile immigration raid on a South Shore Chicago apartment building last year that became a symbol of #Trump's harsh immigration tactics actually targeted squatters, not Venezuelan gang members.

Federal “health” ofcls are weighing vaccine guidance that would encourage parents to talk to a doctor to make decisions for most shots…. This approach would mark a fundamental shift in the #healthcare system that generally relies on federal #health agencies to guide how #patients are protected against #disease [& importantly what #HealthInsurance must cover].

Under #RFKJr, #US plans to stop
recommending most #vaccines
The plan, which is not finalized, suggests #children get fewer shots & shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

#USDA Secy Brooke Rollins on Tuesday threatened to cut off federal #funding to #Democratic-leaning #states over their alleged refusal to share #SNAP program #data with the #Trump admin.
The admin "will begin to stop moving federal funds into those states" starting next week "until they comply," Rollins told Trump during a White House #Cabinet meeting.

#Trump admin says it will withhold #SNAP food aid from #Democrat-led states unless they provide recipient records.

…Comments Rollins made in recent weeks that everyone on #SNAP would have to reapply sparked confusion among SNAP recipients, state officials & food policy experts. SNAP recipients already have to go through a recertification process—in most cases every 6 or 12 months, & it is unclear what #legal #authority #USDA would have to add additional steps.

The cheap #health #insurance promoted by Trump officials has a catch.
Some states have banned “short-term” insurance plans with limited coverage, & consumer advocates have warned of the drawbacks.

…The [forced] treatment-first approach, embodied by #Trump’s plan, pledges swifter action to address what it calls the “root causes” of #homelessness, like drug abuse & mental illness. But it risks consigning to worse destitution & danger those who cannot or do not comply. It also does not address another root cause of homelessness, soaring #housing costs [‼️].

“There are people who have been living in those units for 5 years, 8 years,” said Ann Oliva, the chief executive of the National Alliance to End #Homelessness, an advocacy group. “No one can wrap their head around the idea that #HUD is about to kick 170,000 #vulnerable people out of their homes. People don’t know what’s about to hit them.”

By cutting #aid for permanent #housing by TWO-THIRDS next year, the plan risks a sudden end of support for most of the people the Continuum places in such housing nationwide, beginning as soon as January. All are #disabled — a condition of the aid — & many are 50 or older [WTF?]. The document does not explain how they would find housing.

Although the guidelines primarily impact people outside the #US or those seeking to renew their #visas, experts warn that they could also affect #family members of people already living in the US who would like to come to visit or live with them.
Adriana Cadena, exec dir at Protecting Immigrant Families, said the policy is “dangerous” & impacts #immigrant #families living legally in the US.

It also tells consular officials that whenever an applicant is seeking to use finances to satisfy #PublicCharge requirements, they should request to view the applicant’s bank & financial documents, evidence of their assets, checking, savings, brokerage, trust funds & retirement accounts.

Among the #medical conditions that could disqualify a #visa applicant are chronic conditions; obesity; high blood pressure; cardiovascular, metabolic & neurological diseases; depression; anxiety; & mental health conditions that can require [in the admin’s words] “hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of care,” the cable says.
#Trump #law #immigration #discrimination #ableism #Aporophobia #EconomicDiscrimination #plutocracy #fascism #Nazis #Republicans #USpol
The new directive goes further with more specific requirements. The cable says consular officials must consider a range of specific details about people seeking #visas, including their #age, #health, #family status, #finances, #education, #skills & any past use of public assistance regardless of the country. It also says they should assess applicants’ #English proficiency & can do so by conducting interviews in English.

#Immigrants seeking entry into the #US already undergo a medical exam by a physician who’s been approved by a US Embassy. They are screened for communicable diseases, like tuberculosis, & asked to disclose any history of drug or alcohol use, mental health conditions or violence. They’re also required to have a number of vaccinations [don’t tell #RFKJr].

…#Immigration policy experts say the latest guidance could reduce the number of #immigrant & non-immigrant #visas granted & could disproportionately affect some groups of foreigners seeking access to the #US, such as older adults & people with low incomes.

While federal #law already required those seeking permanent residency or legal status to prove they wouldn’t be a #PublicCharge, #Trump in his first term widened the range of benefit programs that could disqualify applicants, & the guidelines in the cable appear to go even further in scope.
