Sorry - that's not accurate.
Legal immigrants - 30 million since 1980 - are ALL eligible for ALL forms of government assistance, including cash assistance like the Earned Income Tax Credit.
There is a huge body of published data that show that LEGAL immigrants use welfare MORE than native born Americans.
More and more apartments are accepting the Section 8 vouchers. Even the nicer ones. I am seeing a huge change in population where I live. Last time I saw this I sold the house and moved in 1991. the old area is gang ridden now. I am afraid Hermitage, TN is soon to be like Antioch.
