Sanders wants a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants. What if they’re on welfare?

Bernie Sanders, at the Democratic presidential debate, said he wants a “path toward citizenship” for the 11 million illegal immigrants in the country. (That’s probably a drastic underestimate, by the way.)

Alright, fine. That’s in line with every other Democratic presidential candidate who wants to give illegal immigrants free healthcare (wait, do they still get it free if they’re no longer illegal?) and decriminalize illegal border crossings.
