Thanks for this resource.
This doesn't include state aid programs, like the ones in Mass that pay out not only per applicant, but anybody living with you, regardless of age or familial relationship. All you have to do is claimed to be abused, no evidence required, no proof of citizenship.
One great way to stop these programs is mandate that applicants file a police report against their "abuser" before allowing them to collect one red cent.
I posted it a while back.
Legal Aid Society is a great resource to see all the benefits Leftists and Socialists plot to sign people up for and help them navigate around checks against abuse.

Yup, amnesty would cause a significant increase in welfare use, especially coupled with anyone-that-jumps-the-border "selection" process of immigrants. The US should use an immigration model like Australia's, where immigrants are selected on ability to provide for themselves, contribute positively to the existing society, and not further hurt the existing citizens who are struggling.
The overwhelming majority of illegal immigrants have modest levels of education; therefore, the high use of welfare associated with less-educated legal immigrants indicates that legalization would likely increase welfare costs, particularly for cash and housing programs.

An Analysis of Medicaid, cash, food, and housing programs.
Among the findings:
An estimated 49 percent of households headed by legal immigrants used one or more welfare programs in 2012, compared to 30 percent of households headed by natives.
Households headed by legal immigrants have higher use rates than native households overall and for cash programs (14 percent vs. 10 percent), food programs (36 percent vs. 22 percent), and Medicaid (39 percent vs. 23 percent). Use of housing programs is similar.
Legal immigrant households account for three-quarters of all immigrant households accessing one or more welfare programs.
Less-educated legal immigrants make extensive use of every type of welfare program, including cash, food, Medicaid, and housing.
The overwhelming majority of illegal immigrants have modest levels of education; therefore, the high use of welfare associated with less-educated legal immigrants indicates that legalization would likely increase welfare costs, particularly for cash and housing programs.
Restrictions on new legal immigrants’ access to welfare have not prevented them from accessing programs at high rates because restrictions often apply to only a modest share of immigrants at any one time, some programs are not restricted, there are numerous exceptions and exemptions, and some provisions are entirely unenforced. Equally important, immigrants, including those illegally in the country, can receive welfare on behalf of their U.S.-born children.
