AGs sue Trump administration over restrictions on undocumented immigrants' access to public benefits

TL;DR Summary
California and 19 other states sued the Trump administration over new rules that bar undocumented immigrants from accessing over a dozen federally funded benefit programs, arguing the restrictions violate federal law and harm vulnerable populations like children and working mothers. The lawsuit claims the changes are arbitrary, costly, and undermine decades of precedent, while the administration defends them as protecting American resources and reducing illegal immigration. The case highlights ongoing debates over immigration policy and social services.
