    More than half of the nation's immigrants receive some kind of government welfare, a figure that's far higher than the native-born population, according to a report to be released Wednesday.

    About 51% of immigrant-led households receive at least one kind of welfare benefit, including Medicaid, food stamps, school lunches and housing assistance, compared to 30% for native-led households, according to the report from the Center for Immigration Studies, a group that advocates for lower levels of immigration.

    Those numbers increase for households with children, with 76% of immigrant-led households receiving welfare, compared to 52% for the native-born.

    Well, there's one more promise from Obama that proved to be just the opposite of what he told us?! He said illegals would not collect any tax paid benefits. But he also told us if we liked our insurance we could keep it!?

    Cali leads the way in providing benefits for illegal aliens and their kids. If y'all want to see what is coming soon to your neighborhoods (states) just look westward.

    I don't care who wins the white house job so long as they deport these folks and cut their freebies.

    But who else would clean our toilets?

    And who else would vote straight Democrat every election?

    And who else would fill the otherwise empty pews of the Roman Catholic Church?
