A new study examines the costs of education, health care and incarceration of illegal aliens, and concludes the costs to Californians is $10.5 BILLION per year. The state's already struggling K-12 education system spends approximately $7.7 billion a year to school the children of illegal aliens. Another $1.4 billion of taxpayer's money goes toward providing health care to illegal aliens. The same amount is spent incarcerating illegal alien criminals. Back in 1994 California voters rebelled and overwhelmingly passed Proposition 187, which sought to limit liability for mass illegal immigration. Since then state and local governments have blatantly IGNORED the wishes of the voters and continued to shell out public benefits on illegal aliens. Predictably, the costs of illegal immigration have grown geometrically, while the state has spiraled into a fiscal crisis that's brought it near bankruptcy.

If there is no political will
Californian's passed Prop 187 while the rest of the country stood gawking, watching their own states be over run... Californians stood up and voted overwhelmingly to stop this government sponsored epic lawlessness, only to have the feds, working in concert with their state government co-conspirators burn their ballots and declared their free election illegal....
About 14 years later, as the country nears it's second civil war due to government intrusion, the results of government intrusion into prop 187 can be seen in every state and town in this country.
Some of these people out here can't remember a thing beyond the slop they wolfed down for breakfast this morning.
This won’t be problem by next year when the Dimocrats give amnesty to all these illegal aliens and their extended families. As bona fide Americans, they’ll feel they have a stake in the success of Kalifornia. /s/
And we still have Anti-Americans, in both the DNC and GOP...who want to give Illegal Aliens Amnesty.
California is already lost...which state is next?
LOL The only stake the illegals have is the one they use to break into homes.
The article in the link was written in 2004. Can you imagine how bad it is now?
A recent pol IN Mexico showed 67% would come here illegally if they could
and soon they will
Sorry, not Mexico’s fault. It’s the fault of the weenies in kallifoonia and Washington who lacked the stones to send these illegals packing.
Boo hoo.
Mexico merely provided the gun that CA shot itself with.
Which makes Mexico an accessory to this "crime".
Nah, simply an assisted suicide, something libs have no problem with.

California Broke, Thanks Mexico Politicians, including Republicans like John McCain who suck up to illegal immigrants and the criminal element in the vain hope of garnering votes, leaving the cost to be paid by hard working Americans (who, if they're lucky, will only pay money, and not with their very lives).
There.
Fixed it.
Go to Truitt & White Lumber across the Bay in West Berkeley. There are tons of day laborers milling about there. Incredible.
You might even find about half a dozen of them in the early morning hours near a BART stop with a parking lot.
Yep, they couldn’t resist all that cheap labor.
parsy, who says its a shame
QUOTING CONG TOM TANCREDO: “Juan Hernandez headed up the newly-created "Ministry of Mexicans Living in the United States." Hernandez is a very interesting fellow, a dual citizen of the United States and Mexico, and a good friend of presidents Bush and Mexico's Vicente Fox (and John MacCain's Hispanic outreach man)."
Hernandez said the purpose of the Mexican government agency he heads is:
(1) to increase the flow of Mexican nationals to the United States.....
(2) to serve Mexico’s needs.........
(3) to increase remittances to Mexico of $50 billion a year (30% of the Mexican GDP);
(4) to get US jobs for an exploding Mexican population, alleviating social instability due to rising unemployment;
(5) to get free US training for Mexicans, who are expected to return and repatriate those skills back to Mexico.
Hernandez supports amnesty: "By populating the United States with millions of Hispanics tied economically, politically and linguistically to Mexico, we are able to exert enormous influence and pressure on US policy and its dealings with Mexico." NOTE: That means billions of US tax dollars subsidizing corrupt federales.

======================================
An immigration judge recently refused to grant "political asylum" in the US to a Honduran national who was claiming "persecution" ........... and the monetary benefits that come with it.
ANALYSIS Corrupt Third World govts are coaching their citizens to whine about "persecution" to seek "asylum" in the US.......b/c they know that they can collect Soc/Sec checks (even though they have not contributed one red cent to SS).
CASE IN POINT The bogus Mexican "drug war" was engineered to create a whole new class of illegal connivers....."persecuted refugees" seeking "asylum" in the US.
BACKSTORY Social Security's "persecution" classification was once reserved for those claiming religious or political persecution. Now the Mexican govt is coaching its citizens to pour into the US, whining about "persecution from abusive spouses, and from drug wars". Some of these whiners are wealthy people , squatting on US soil, intent on draining the US treasury.
THE RIPOFF UP CLOSE Social Security provides outrageous government financial aid to "refugees" claiming "persecution." These people never paid a dime into the SS system; yet, they can collect seven years straight...... and can get extended payments if they are politically well-connected. The SS checks can amount to $1000 a month, and more. The category was created for those coming from eastern Europe and other Soviet satellite countries circa WW II....and they're STILL collecting. Just another way these connivers drain the US Treasury.
=================================
ACTION NOW Call your reps and demand these payments and the "persecuted refugee" classification be stopped.

Although Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) vowed this week to introduce comprehensive immigration reform next month, his Senate counterparts expected to take the lead on the issue aren’t heeding a similar timeline. “That’s new to me,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said of Gutierrez’s announcement, made Tuesday at an immigration rally on Capitol Hill. “I’ve been talking to Sen. Schumer, and we hope to get something done that’s comprehensive,” Graham added. “We just don’t know when yet.”
Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), who chairs the Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Refugees and Border Security, has been meeting periodically with Graham to discuss ideas on immigration, but the Senate duo has no plans to offer legislation in the near term as the Senate looks to pass a massive health care package. “We have to get health care done first,” Graham said.

gerrymandering..... can’t win an election here if your life depended upon it unless of course you are democrat=communist=facist=all the same.
Voting is NOT ENOUGH. If we rely on the ballot, we have LOST.
You send some obscure link, over a year old, where some dusty Texas towns attempts to sue DHS? All this while Texas is crawling with millions of illegal aliens?
Get freakin real.
1994? So there have been some 6 to 8 election cycles between then and now,
WHY THE HELL DIDN’T THE VOTERS CLEAN HOUSE??
You asked what Texas did.
That’s just some of it. The entire nation did a crappy job on immigration control for decades, and Texas is no exception.
The Bush Justice Department had to sue towns all along the border to even build a fence.
CA has itself to blame.
