Illegal immigrants who entered US since Biden took office to cost taxpayers $20+ billion a year: analysis
An analysis by a hawkish immigration group find that the illegal immigrants released or who evaded Border Patrol will cost taxpayers tens of billions of dollars a year.
To put that into perspective:
FAIR, which calls for stricter border controls as part of a range of broader immigration reforms, laid out the money the estimated $20.4 billion could be spent on instead -- including providing every homeless veteran in the U.S. $50K a year for the next 10 years.
The money, the analysis says, could also hire 330,000 teachers, fund and expand the National School Lunch Program, provide Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits to more than 7 million extra families or provide every family earning less than $50K a year a $410 grocery voucher.
It could also construct the entire wall at the southern border -- a project that began under the Trump administration.
