No problem. It has been WELL documented.

"A new study from the Center for Immigration Studies is one of the first to estimate the impact of illegal immigration on the federal budget. Based on Census Bureau data, the study estimates that households headed by illegal aliens used $10 billion more in government services than they paid in taxes in 2002. These figures are only for the federal government; costs at the state and local level are also likely to be significant. The study also finds that if illegals were given amnesty, the fiscal deficit at the federal level would grow to nearly $29 billion."

or california:

Illegal immigration costs californians 10.5 billion annually

Or this one: Illegals Cost Feds $10 Billion a Year; Amnesty Would Nearly Triple Cost

That's just federal costs.

Now average out the state costs for florida and california, and apply it to all fifty states.

Good thing we're getting all this cheap illegal alien picked produce, otherwise we wouldn't be able to support all the costs associated with illegal immigration!
