Illegal immigration costs taxpayers in all 50 states a total of $89 billion, and California, where an illegal on Thursday was cleared of murdering Kate Steinle despite admitting to the shooting, pays the most at $23 billion .

...

The costs cover added expenditures for education, welfare, law enforcement, and medical care.

When federal costs are included, the price tag nationally soars to $135 billion a year.

FAIR’s data also includes the offset of taxes paid by illegal immigrants, though the numbers are much lower. In the state and local column, they are $3.5 billion. Nationally they are $15 billion.

Overall, costs associated with illegal immigrants is much higher for state and local governments than the federal government. States pay $89 billion, Uncle Sam $46 billion.

Interesting maps, but the last name map blew up too big, and I can’t see the eastern seaboard. Don’t know why.

Anyway, I was just thinking yesterday that it is been a very long time since I knew somebody with the last name Smith. There was one family in my parish.

I live in California, in a Pacific Rim community. Common last names are things like Lee and Kim.

It Appears DC, Ohio, and West Virginia are inadequately represented in the terms of Quantity and Cost of Illegal Aliens.

Maybe we need a Statewide AD Campaign here in Mexifornia to encourage the Illegals to move there, I know John Kasich will gladly let them move in to his neighborhood.

What is: "Subject that is NEVER talked about by the media Alex".

They have a good commercial on Breitbart's OAN that covers the cost of illegal immigration in the golden state . I wish it could be shown on main channels in California. People should know about this, as well as many other issues they are being kept in the dark about.

If we had a functioning main stream press, staffed with journalists who understood our Consitution, and dedicated themselves to their vital work of informing the public of the truth, and preserving individual rights by keeping the government in check- Our country would be fine.

But, as it is now we are in deep trouble as a nation.

There is no free press and what we do have instead, are a bunch of Socialist/Marxist propagandists who promote the most destructive ideology known to man and are never publicly challenged about the failures of these government systems (See Venezuela-oh wait no one is reporting about it because it's in total chaos and nearing collapse) .

And if the above isn't damaging enough - Our so called news media cover up for government power grabs and corruption and also refuse to inform citizens of other serious problems such as the crippling cost of illegal immigration discussed in the article .

And they do this for what? So people like the Clintons and Soros can get even richer than they already are?

That doesn't even make sense.

Whatever reasons they have for being tools and useful idiots of the left- We would be in much better shape if we had free press dedicated to telling the truth and operating solely to protect the public by keeping them fully informed of whatever shenanigans our government is up to.

One can dream that this will exist someday.

Where did you get that figure?

The report published by Homeland Security stated it would cost $21B but even that is worth it.

Here is another prospective:

There are 60 seconds in a minute
60 minutes in an hour
24 hours in a day
365 days in a year

60 x 60=3600
3600 X 24= 86400 seconds a day
86400 X 365 = 31,536,000 seconds per year.

Do the math & you will find that American Taxpayers are paying $4280.82 every second of every day of every year for the total of $135,000,000,000.

I suspect that the actual costs are much higher.

Property insurance have risen in high illegal areas.

Auto insurance has risen—particularly in states where Illegals have been granted driver’s licenses. MY vehicle insurance has risen over $50 a month since Nevada gave them driver’s licenses, from $80 a month to over $135 a month. On Soc Sec, that is a big hit—especially when Obama didn’t give us ANY increases for 4 years & last year we got .3% increase. That amounted to exactly $4 extra a month for me. So just the increase in vehicle insurance puts me in the hole $51 a month. My last accident was October 1966, and my last ticket was for seat belt ( I did have it on) which was over 15 years ago.

How about the cost of food in the schools? I live rural & the local school district budgets over $7000 per student for each year—MORE for ‘special needs’ kids—and there are illegals in he schools—draining those resources.

I think is is very difficult to find all the costs of the illegals. Is anyone adding in the funeral costs for all the Border Patrol agents they have killed???
