Of course they get welfare (assistance). Anyone who says otherwise is disconnected.

Read this from Oregon:

Low-wage earners in this country illegally cannot support a family any better than a citizen can, so they turn to our generous safety net of social welfare benefits. Nobody may ask if they are citizens when they apply for benefits. When the Mexican consulate held a day to issue Matricula Consular cards to illegals in Oregon, for instance, state agencies were invited, and attended, to direct them to services available to them.

Oregon is one of the states that only requires a minimum of identification to get drivers' licenses. When you get a driver's license you may also sign up to vote. Nobody asks if you are here legally. State agencies justify their budgets and solidify their power when they serve more people".

To: spectre

marajade was telling me that they do not. I am so tired of being lied to, by our state government, when we all know these illegals are receiving assistance and come here for the assistance because it flows like a mighty river in their direction.
