Summary
This executive order directs federal agencies to prevent taxpayer-funded benefits from going to illegal aliens and to strengthen eligibility verification systems. It requires agencies to identify federally funded programs that currently provide benefits to undocumented immigrants and take corrective action, while also directing the Office of Management and Budget and a federal service to identify additional sources of federal funding for illegal aliens and recommend further agency actions.
Key Points

- 2Federal payments to states and localities must not facilitate or promote illegal immigration or 'sanctuary' policies that shield undocumented immigrants from deportation
- 3Agencies are directed to enhance eligibility verification systems to ensure taxpayer-funded benefits exclude ineligible aliens who entered illegally or are unlawfully present
- 4The Office of Management and Budget and other federal entities must identify all sources of federal funding for illegal aliens within 30 days and recommend additional corrective actions
- 5Agencies must refer improper receipt or use of federal benefits to the Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security
