Here's another alarming part of Tlaib's proposal:

Cards would be distributed in three ways:

  1. Direct Mail: All individuals with an active address on file with any government agency would have a card sent to them to that address via USPS.

  2. In Person Pick-Up: Individuals who do not have a permanent address, or who otherwise cannot or do not receive their U.S. Debit Card by mail—including undocumented people, permanent residents, and temporary visitors whose stay exceeds three months—could also obtain one directly from any FDIC-insured bank or credit union, or temporary card distribution stations that would be placed at local post offices and U.S. embassies overseas.

  3. At-Risk Outreach: A dedicated Emergency Responder Corps would perform outreach to at-risk populations, including people who are elderly, homeless, physically disabled, or live in remote areas, to ensure they receive their U.S. Debit Card and to simultaneously perform a general wellness check in case they need additional targeted assistance.

These cards would end up in the hands of every undocumented immigrant and corrupt politician in this country!
