This video details a significant Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) opinion issued under the Trump administration, which effectively ends welfare benefits for illegal aliens. The opinion closes a loophole in the 1996 Welfare Reform Act, which had allowed discretionary benefits to continue for non-citizens. The speaker, Mark W. Smith, a constitutional attorney, explains the legal history, including the role of the Chevron doctrine and its recent overturning by the Supreme Court in Loper Bright, in enabling this policy change. Smith also briefly touches upon his article in the Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy concerning delays in firearm carry licensing.
