Census confirms: 63 percent of ‘non-citizens’ on welfare, 4.6 million households

Do you realize how much TAXPAYER money that is. Trump has been telling the truth all along, hes been categorically right about everything Illegal Immigration.

The left just keeps lying to us


A majority of “non-citizens,” including those with legal green card rights, are tapping into welfare programs set up to help poor and ailing Americans, a Census Bureau finding that bolsters President Trump’s concern about immigrants costing the nation.

In a new analysis of the latest numbers, from 2014, 63 percent of non-citizens are using a welfare program, and it grows to 70 percent for those here 10 years or more, confirming another concern that once immigrants tap into welfare, they don’t get off it.





The Center for Immigration Studies said in its report that the numbers give support for Trump’s plan to cut non-citizens off welfare from the “public charge” if they want a green card that allows them to legally work in the United States.

@Dr. Who @Standing Wolf and @Safety

This kind of information is whats driving the majority of americans against the Political Lefts policy of sanctuaries and just giving our money to those that are here illegally and leaving our homeless in the street.

This is going to come back and bite the democrats on the arse sooner rather than later, its gaining momentum.

Oh...he intentionally left me out because he knew I'd be able to expose his dumbass post for what it is...

First, why is this in Latest Happenings, @Common? Aren't you a mod. Don't you realize the "study" your anti-immigrant slanted report cites is from 2014? And taken from the 2010 Census?

Anyhow, it's easy to debunk. As it is every two years or so when the CIS has nothing better to do...

But it’s important to keep two bits of context in mind:
• This statistic addresses households headed by an illegal immigrant. However, many of these households include American citizens within the family, often children who were born in the United States and who received citizenship at birth. Indeed, given the web of restrictions on the granting of government benefits to illegal immigrants, most of the "welfare" benefits being counted in the CIS table are going to citizen children, not to adult illegal immigrants.

• We suspect that when many people hear the term "welfare," they think of cash benefits. However, very little cash assistance is going to illegal immigrants. According to CIS, less than 1 percent of illegal-immigrant-headed households included anyone receiving direct government cash assistance, such as Temporary Aid for Needy Families (TANF), Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or state-run cash aid. This is not surprising: Illegal immigrants are generally barred from receiving such payments.

Instead, 27 percent of such households received coverage from Medicaid, the federal-state health care program for the poor, while 33 percent received food assistance, such as free or reduced-price school lunches, food stamps, or benefits from the Women-Infants-Children program (WIC). As noted earlier, many of the recipients of these programs were actually citizen children of illegal immigrants.

On balance, we rated the claim Mostly False.

Many green card applications require that someone sign an affidavit of financial support- like spouse and fiance visas. So if they go on welfare, their spouse or fiance gets the bill.

I'm actually quite surprised the number isn't higher, tbh

If you bucket carriers of hatred don't believe PolitiFact, try the US Chamber of Commerce.

For instance, the Urban Institute concluded that immigrant families are less likely to use the SupplementalNutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP (commonly referred to as “food stamps”), than native-born families.While more than two-thirds of children in poor families with U.S.-born parents received SNAP in 2008 and2009, less than half of children in poor families with foreign-born parents received SNAP in the same years.85Similarly, 18 percent of children with native-born parents used TANF, compared to 12 percent of children withimmigrant parents.86 Notably, children in poor families with native parents are more likely to have public healthinsurance coverage than those with immigrant parents.

One can make their points without being an ass. Wouldn't you agree?
