This what the dems, soros and gates have given the American taxpayer free of charge. If they have their way it will be close to 100 million illegals we will be supporting according to Mark Levin.

In reality all states are sanctuary states.

For those who say we don’t have universal healthcare, we do in the emergency rooms. Everyone pays for the healthcare of illegals.

Send the bills to their native countries, and if they don’t pay - take it out of whatever aid they get from us.

Add to that food stamps for 20-25-30 million migrants, hotels for migrants, shop lifting cost, free flights to bring in migrants to skip border restrictions.

All the while Democrats contend that we should allow illegal aliens to stay as they are productive members of our society. They are actually leeches on our economy.

That's a big number, but I suspect it is actually much more than that.

The Emergency Rooms try to recover their losses to illegals by charging unbelievable fees to us schlubs who are actually paying for insurance and healthcare.

And Fed law (8 USC 1324) allows us to arrest those people who ‘encourage’ illegal immigration. Like the judges ... arrest them, dis-BAR them, let them serve 5 years.

ONE AND A HALF BILLION dollars per year in just ONE STATE. And that's only for their health care, not their food, housing, unemployment, crooked SS payments, cell phones, education, etc. Texas is probably paying FIVE to TEN billion year all-in.

CA 1.8 million illegals
TX 1.6 million illegals

Here is Grok's estimate of annual illegal costs in billions to TX and CA.

Cost CategoryTexasCalifornia
Education$5.0$12.0
Healthcare$3.5$7.0
Criminal Justice$1.4$3.8
Subtotal$9.9$22.8
Taxes Paid$4.9$7.0
Total$14.8$29.8

CLOWARD & PIVEN

Anyone who doesn't understand 'Cloward & Piven' strategy should do a deep dive on the web and understand it because THIS is one of the ways in which the GLOBAL CABAL and their Team Obama/Biden PUPPETS sought/seeks to DESTROY THE UNITED STATES.

In order for China or the EU to realize their COMMUNIST WORLD GOV'T wet dream, the U.S. must be removed from the game board by OVERWHELMING OUR ECONOMY TO THE POINT OF IRRECOVERABLE COLLAPSE, HENCE 'CLOWARD & PIVEN'.

Hospital care is on top of this number... and hospitals use the unpaid bills as write offs on their taxes - which means they pay less then that should and the numbers go on and on.

Of course as much as illegals cost us it’s nothing compared to the loot cartels collected for selling American citizenship.

And Biden - he took the children and flew them around the country... Lots was going on here behind the scenes - considering that 80% of Americans opposed illegals coming into the country it’s irrational - - unless you realize it made perfect sense for those who knew the whole story.

In 2022, migrant remittances reached $794 billion, according to the World Bank. The US is a major source of these remittances.

From last year...

CBO: Medicaid Spending on Illegal Aliens Has Cost Taxpayers over $16.2 Billion Under Open Border Czar Harris

And I bet that amount is lowballed.

Do the hospitals not try to collect even ten cents from the patients?

And are those figures the billed charges, or the final settlement amount?

Don’t forget, all school-age kids are entitled (according to SCOTUS) to a free public education. This will include free breakfast, lunch and in some places supper and weekend ‘backpacks’.

Oh yes. What amazes me is there are 10 times more posts disparaging H1-B visa workers than illegals.
Every H1-B worker must keep the job to retain visa, pay all taxes federal, state, local, sales etc. No one can collect welfare since the visa expires as soon as job is lost, have the lowest crime stats compared to any other group, and best of all they keep business competitive inside United States instead of outsourcing the business.

Food stamps and other freebies also go on the black market.
