Tuesday, a new report revealed that most people who reside in the U.S. illegally or on green cards are receiving government benefits. The study, utilizing the latest Census Bureau data from 2014, found that 63% of non-citizen households in America reported being on welfare. While Fox News' Maria Bartiromo shared the report December 4, ABC, NBC and CBS ignored the findings in Tuesday's morning coverage.
The study by the Center for Immigration Studies, found that, “63 percent of households headed by a non-citizen reported that they used at least one welfare program, compared to 35 percent of native-headed households.†That means over 4 million non-citizen households have reported to receiving these benefits.To make that worse, the study found, 93% of those same welfare recipients have at least one worker.
