Every time Trump puts his focus here, he wins big. This is where you park your car for awhile. Crush the incentives to invade our sovereign nation l.

Just tax the hell out of remittances regardless of source.

How many people do you think regularly send over 2k? This press release just seems like a way to stir things up and won't actually have much impact due to the 2k threshold.

The US can use our SWIFT banking system to track who is now sending amounts that vary from their previous transactions , see who gets nervous and used to send 500 bucks is now sending multiples.

They will also go after earned income tax credits, what an absolute honeyhole for illegals. The IRS knew there were issues when 25 refund checks went to the same address in Mexico.

WIC, all sorts of progams.

Remember when all of you hated the US govt for spying on you....Trini remembers.

How do you know which ones are sent from illegals? What’s to stop an illegal from having a legal friend or family member send the remittance for them?

I’ve been asking for a variation of this for years. We should tax that money as it goes to Haiti, Mexico, El Salvador, or wherever.

Completely agree with this, but new taxes have to originate with Congress.
