Report: More than half of foreign-born Nebraska residents aren't citizens

A new report says 67 percent of Nebraska's foreign-born residents are not U.S. citizens.

A report from the University of Nebraska at Omaha's Office of Latino/Latin American Studies says that's more than 65,600 people. The report doesn't delve into how many of those are in the country illegally.

In analyzing data gathered by the U.S. Census Bureau, the report says naturalization rates have been increasing since the mid-1990s. More than 27 percent of all Nebraska's naturalized citizens counted in the 2008 American Community Survey became citizens in a period from 2001 to 2005. To compare, about 8 percent became citizens in the early 1990s.

In 2008, nearly 98,000 Nebraskans were counted as foreign born, or about 5.5 percent of the state's population.

Loads of illegals there too selling meth, working in slaughter houses and selling drugs.

Ditto all the illegals and Haitians bankrupting Florida.

Doesn’t surprise me, everybody wants to come here. Despite the fact that we’re such a racist, fascist, unprogressive society.
