Rep. Lon Burnam, D-Fort Worth, said looking just at the cost of illegal immigrants doesn’t take into account the money they pump into the state.

What money do they "pump into" the state? Does he mean the federal welfare money that goes to them?

And, what about the millions that they send home to may-he-co that isn't being spent in this country?
