House GOP zeroes in on immigrants to help fund tax cuts

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Republicans are leaning on immigrants, undocumented or not, to help make the math work for their sprawling tax package.

Even as they push to cut taxes on millions of Americans, lawmakers want to simultaneously bar immigrants from claiming a panoply of tax benefits, from the popular Child Tax Credit to Obamacare health-insurance subsidies to an obscure break on student-loan debt that’s forgiven when someone becomes disabled.

Republicans are zeroing in on so-called refundable credits, where people can get a check from the government when the benefit exceeds their tax bills. They say those payments should not be going to people who are not citizens.

The little-noticed provisions are likely to generate more than $80 billion for the Republicans' $4 trillion tax-cut plan while dovetailing with the president’s hardline approach to immigration.
