Study: Illegal Immigration Is Costing Taxpayers a STAGGERING Amount of Money​

Illegal immigration is costing taxpayers $151 billion every year — a 30% increase since 2017.

“The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on United States Taxpayers 2023,” a report by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), concludes that taxpayers spend $182 billion annually on illegal immigrants. That number is partially offset by illegal aliens paying $31 billion in taxes. FAIR estimates that tax revenue is collected from 15.5 million illegal aliens — far more than the government’s 11.3 million estimated illegal alien numbers, which are based on population surveys.


While illegal immigrants are not eligible for the majority of federal welfare programs, the study also takes into account services, such as education and food assistance programs, provided to the U.S.-born children of illegal immigrants and also programs that they may be eligible for at the state level.

The largest cost that FAIR identifies is K-12 education, which the group estimates costs a total of $78 billion a year. Health care – including uncompensated hospital expenditures, Medicaid fraud and Medicaid for U.S. born children – is estimated to cost $42.7 billion a year. Costs related to criminal justice at the federal, state and local levels, which includes federal immigration enforcement, are estimated at approximately $47 billion a year.

“As America struggles to meet countless societal needs while facing the realities of our staggering $31 trillion national debt, the costs of providing for millions of people who have no legal right to be in the United States continues to grow at an alarming rate,” FAIR President Dan Stein said in a statement.

A January 2018 Trump administration proposal for the U.S. Customs and Border Protection called for $18 billion in funding for the wall over the following ten years.

Yeah, and they probably wasted a million bucks on the study too.

"a report by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), concludes that taxpayers spend $182 billion annually on illegal immigrants."

Taxpayers don't spend money on this. Our government does. If it were up to taxpayers I bet you'd have maybe 5% of our population willing to give them money.

A million ? No, my friend...that "study" cost WAAAAYYYYYY more than a million. I'm betting on TEN million.

The number is t offset by illegal immigrants paying $31 billion in taxes because most get it back and game the system anyway. These estimates are just that and I believe none of them. How much does each state pay?

I don't see a problem with the cost of supporting the illegals, or the other wagon riders. Joe can just add more $printing presse'$ and run them 24/7.

It's not hard. For a majority of us on this forum, we are 3 steps (if not more) ahead of most everything, usually.
