With SB 1718 now recording the costs to the Sunshine State in real-time, it is clear that the costs of caring for indigent illegals are quickly adding up.

Duval has suffered a loss of $31,439, 143, Hillsborough’s loss is at $58,822,134, Orange stands at $58,328,521, and Miami-Dade has lost a whopping $231,804,144.

According to the reporting website, the estimated costs to care for illegal aliens have totaled more than $566 million to date.

AND THAT IS ONLY ONE STATE OF FIFTY!!!!!!!

NOW ADD IN HOUSING, FOOD, TRANSLATION SERVICES, EDUCATION X 50.

All that for some ‘farm workers’. Nice investment, huh?

Many countries are sending those who will NEVER work and many who will only overburden our law enforcement , hospitals and prisons.

So amazing - just forcing them to reveal this is a huge start.

In a small hospital outside of Atlanta, there are two older women, who have nowhere to go and, for some reason, can’t be released. But, apparently they do not require hospital care.

So, they basically live in the hospital as if it were an apartment with no bills.

Biden, due to the complacency of silent Republicans, has been allowed to ruin America without interference.

California too - leading to ERs and urgent care facilities closing. The one near me closed - the last time I went there (my daughter needed a clearance to return to school and that’s where I was sent) - the place was loaded with what looked like illegals and their children, so many they spilled outside the building and were sitting all over the steps.

Drove past a few months later and the place was closed down.

I understand this is happening all up and down the state, and will happen in Florida soon b/c treating so many people for free is not sustainable.
