Why Trump's Immigrant Welfare Data Excludes India: High Earners, Low Reliance

• Donald Trump shared a chart on Truth Social detailing immigrant households receiving welfare from various nations, excluding India.
• The chart showed high welfare usage among immigrants from Bangladesh (54.8%), Pakistan (40.2%), and Nepal (34.8%), but India was absent.
• India was likely excluded due to a ~25% welfare usage cutoff, as Indian immigrants have high earnings and minimal reliance on public assistance.
• Indian immigrants are significant contributors to the US economy, income tax revenues, and Silicon Valley startups.
• A Manhattan Institute study identifies Indian immigrants as the most economically beneficial group, saving the federal government $1.7 million per immigrant over 30 years.

Why It Matters: Indian immigrants are economically beneficial, with high earnings and low welfare reliance, explaining their absence from Trump's chart.
