High cost of illegals & their effects on our education &health care
Put a major strain on government services such as our health care and education. State and local governments are hit hard and often bear the burden of footing the bill. Illegal aliens in CA have cost state between $9billion and $38billion in public services.
Texas has estimated that the bill for illegal immigrant hospital care was as much as $1.3 billion in 2006.

Large numbers want a path to easy, tax-free money they can send home to build businesses, homes and economies, as well as a path home to enjoy the byproducts of their labors here. Do illegal immigrants pay U.S. taxes? In many cases, not until after they have sent home loads of tax-free dollars to their loved ones.


According to the U.S. Census, the government estimates we now have eleven million illegal aliens in the United States. Of these, 6,640,000 are from Mexico alone. The true number may be much higher because many did not report in the census. The average amount each state spends to provide welfare, medical, food stamps and education alone is between eleven to twenty two billion dollars a year. This does not include the amount paid from the Social Security and Medicare fund to immigrants who have never worked a day in the U.S.!

A study released by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) estimates that illegal immigration now costs federal and local taxpayers $113 billion a year. The report, The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on U.S. Taxpayers, is the most comprehensive analysis of how much the estimated 13 million illegal aliens and their U.S.-born children cost the federal, state and local governments
.

The cost estimates are based on an extensive analysis of federal, state and local spending data. The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on U.S. Taxpayers examines dozens of government programs that are available to illegal aliens and their U.S.-born children, both legally and fraudulently. The report provides detailed analysis of the impact of illegal immigration on education, health care, law enforcement and justice, public assistance, and other government programs.
