What kind of welfare does American public welfare mean?

Public welfare in the United States mainly includes federal social insurance, unemployment subsidies, public assistance, and maternity and child welfare. In fact, these benefits are mainly welfare subsidies for low-income and the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled. Relatively speaking, the public welfare system in the United States is relatively perfect.

However, recently, due to the introduction of Trump's new immigration policy, many public benefits have become part of the public welfare burden and become a stumbling block to immigration applications. Many public welfare benefits with blurred boundaries in the past have become clear and strict in implementation, which will have a greater impact on some low-income people in the United States.

After Trump took office, the welfare policy of the United States has been tightening. On September 22nd, the website of the US Department of Homeland Security published a new regulation proposal, saying that legal immigrants in the United States or their family members who have used public welfare such as food stamps or "housing subsidy vouchers" may face the rejection of their green cards. The proposal aims to reduce the burden on the country. It will be more difficult for people who may use American public welfare to enter the United States or get a green card.

In addition to the above welfare policies contained in the social security law, there are many social benefits in the United States, involving all aspects of life and work. The more common ones are as follows:
