Simple: If an immigrant gets on public assistance benefits (Welfare, EBT, WIC, etc), then it negatively affects their chances at getting a green card and on the path towards citizenship.

The left has argued that this is racist since it will primarily affect "people of color" more than, say, European or Asian immigrants, who tend to be self sufficient upon arrival.

This is key as now the millions of "refugees" soaking up taxpayer funded assistance programs (that were intended to be used by taxpayers who had paid into the system to use in times of temporary financial distress) who have never paid a dime into the system, and who are generally never going to be net contributors to society.
