Somalis dancing in hijabs

بواسطة Pavellim: Brandon Gill

Demographic shifts drive cultural change, a reality Minnesota is vividly living through. Congressman Brandon Gill pointed to household statistics that complicate the narrative. In the state, 81% of Somali-headed households receive social assistance. Food stamps support 54% of these families, while 73% rely on Medicaid. Long-term dependency is also evident, with 78% of Somali immigrant households still accessing benefits ten years after arriving in the United States. These figures stand in stark contrast to Somalis forever bragging about how they 'enrich' America with their culture. #BrandonGill
