Refugees Welcome: The Personal Costs of Illegal Aliens

Breitbart indicates that "Biden’s Border Inflation: Illegal Aliens Cost Each U.S. Taxpayer $1,200 in 2023." It goes on to relate:

    In 2023, millions of illegal aliens residing in the United States cost every American taxpayer nearly $1,200. In total, taxpayers were billed $150 billion this year to pay for illegal immigration.

    The cost of illegal immigration to taxpayers is summarized in an annual report from the Federal for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), detailing the baseline burden that illegal aliens have on Americans.

    “Every day, hundreds of millions of dollars in American taxpayer money are spent on costs directly associated with illegal immigration,” the FAIR report states. “Only a small fraction of these costs is ever recouped from taxes paid by illegal aliens, with the rest falling on the shoulders of American citizens and legal immigrants.”

    This cost estimate, for instance, does not include lower wages, lost jobs, or higher housing costs as a result of illegal immigration.

    This year, the FAIR report suggests, each taxpayer was billed close to $1,200 to pay for the nation’s more than 15 million illegal aliens and their U.S.-born children, commonly known as “anchor babies.”

    “At the federal, state, and local levels, taxpayers shell out approximately $182 billion to cover the costs incurred from the presence of more than 15.5 million illegal aliens, and about 5.4 million citizen children of illegal aliens,” the FAIR report states. “That amounts to a cost burden of approximately $8,776 per illegal alien/citizen child.”

Those that support the importation of illegal aliens need to pay more for their actions. Thus, I support sending more illegals to every state that went for Biden in 2020.
