Culturally appropriate food can get expensive. Subjecting them to the same garbage citizens eat would be cruel.

Now Maine wants to spend money on illegals instead of US Vets

New Maine Bill would establish a State office to help illegals integrate. When questioned why they don’t use those resources to help our veterans whose needs are ignored, State Rep Deqa Dhalac explains that illegals deserve priority over veterans.

You’d expect different from State Rep Deqa Dhalac? I sure as hell wouldn’t.

"Under the pilot program, illegals would receive approximately $350 monthly for food and baby supplies, exceeding benefits provided to low-income New Yorkers under SNAP. This initiative reflects a significant investment, offering illegals 40% more than what low-income residents receive under SNAP."

Apparently somebody has conflated SNAP benefits with immigration benefits. And this is in a singular city New York City. While disturbing, the inference that this is a wide ranging issue is not proven or observed.

Charlie Kirk likes to work on sensationalism - and unfortunately this story comes up short, just like he does

They're both welfare programs under which the beneficiaries receive debit cards that are restricted to purchases of food and essentials.

Why should illegals get 40% more than legal residents?

It's not systemic across any other states and the OP cited Chaz Kirk whom I said was just sensationalizing the situation. I will also say it's sad if NYC SNAP isn't paying it's vulnerable citizens a similar bump up for costs. But saying immigration benefits is the same as EBT / SNAP isn't truthful. Hell, it's also based on the amount of children under a qualified recipient and men don't typically qualify for housing assistance in general. Unless they are a primary care provider to children.

If they’re in this country illegally they should get nothing, not even a bus ticket back to wherever they came from. They made it here on foot, they can make it back.
