If this passes we will ALL be paying higher property, state and local taxes because of the impact of the illegals 'extended' families that will soon be pouring into our country. I think we also need to pressure our local leaders on ths issue.

Where are these poor, underpaid illegal’s going to get $5,000 apiece. What is the impact on our property taxes, state and local taxes which will have to be increased to deal with the increased populations due to the ‘extended’ families they will be bringing in? What impact will they have on our overcrowded prisons and jails...6-7% of any population ends up in prison or jail. What is the impact on our already overburdened charity hospitals? We will need new schools to teach their kids, and more teachers, more cops, more prison guards........ NO one has said a word about these things.

Those of us in California have been screaming for years about the cost of illegals, we even passed a proposition 187 to end much of it which our Governor quietly trashed after one judge ruled against a portion of it. The state is broke illegals are costing the state over 10 billion per year, that’s about $1200 per household...And no the Senate doesn’t bother with costs, they don’t pay them we do. Heritage Foundation estimates cost of the bill at 2.5 trillion dollars.
