This bill is about accountability: stop rewarding those gaming the system and protect hardworking citizens who follow the law.

This bill’s just another headwind against immigrant families trying to make a living—where’s the compassion? When we make honesty a barrier, we’re just punishing the kids who need help the most.

Making sure benefits go to those legally authorized sounds fair, but let’s not build a fortress of paperwork around families in need. Balance, folks, balance.

At last, someone’s standing up for American taxpayers by requiring valid work authorizations before handing out our money. No more freebies on false pretenses!

No SSN, no subsidy—simple. If you want tax credits, show you’re playing by the rules, or pay your own way.

The devil’s in the details: cracking down on fraud is good, but if this slows down real claims, we’ll just frustrate those it aims to help. Efficiency is key here.

It’s a tricky line—security versus support. We want smart enforcement, not a headache for honest taxpayers chasing missing forms and SSNs.

Penalizing people for expired work authorizations just yells ‘we don’t care about your struggle.’ Shouldn’t tax credits help kids, not police families?

More red tape for working folks? Great, let’s fine families for paperwork errors instead of fixing systemic issues. Who knew bureaucracy could be the biggest kid in the room?
