Over 700,000 illegal aliens are living in Florida, estimates the Migration Policy Institute.37 This is an increase of 350,000, or 100 percent, since 1996 and an increase of 430,000, or 159 percent, since 1992.
Costs of Educating Illegal Alien Children Total $7.4 Billion, Shows New Report; Florida´s Share Comes to More Than $308 Million
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Taxpayers are spending $7.4 billion a year to educate illegal alien children, finds a new analysis of Census Bureau data from the Federation for American Immigration Reform. That's enough money to put a computer on the desk of every junior high school student in America.
Florida complained for years to the federal government that it wasn’t doing enough to stop illegal immigration or to help the state bear the costs. Then, in the summer of 1994, 32,000 Cuban rafters started coming ashore in Key West, at a rate of 1,000 a day.
Immigration-driven population growth is taking its toll on Florida, the seventh fastest growing state in the U.S.. In the last ten years, over three million new residents settled in Florida-an increase that is larger than the entire population of the state in 1950.
One-third of these new residents in Florida were immigrants. This large-scale population growth is bringing traffic, pollution, overcrowded schools, and lack of affordable housing to the state, decreasing quality of life and straining natural resources.
In 1995, then-Governor Lawton Chiles’s Commission for a Sustainable South Florida warned in a unanimous report that “rapid population growth and sprawling development patterns are leading South Florida down a path toward wall-to-wall suburbanization. ” Last year, Governor’s Jeb Bush’s Growth Management Commission agreed that traffic, crowded classrooms, water shortages, and pollution are serious and growing problems in the state.2 Yet Florida continues to add the third largest number of immigrants of any state.
Florida’s schools are so overcrowded that legislators are considering paying students to go to private schools instead of public ones.25 In Miami-Dade County, 41 percent of schools are at least 150 percent over capacity,26 and locker rooms and custodial closets have been converted into classrooms.
In Sarasota, some classrooms have more than 40 students at a time. In Manatee County, lunch lines are sometimes so long that students don’t have time to eat unless they miss class. Pasco County has opened six new schools in the last three years, has three more scheduled to open in the upcoming months, and still projects that by 2005, two high schools each will receive 700 more students than they have room for. No affordable land is available for further school construction.
Twenty-eight percent of Florida children have immigrant parents31. Six percent are foreign-born themselves.
Because Florida’s high immigration rate means that population growth often exceeds projections, school enrollment projections (the basis of the state’s funding formula) frequently underestimate actual enrollments, “leaving school districts scrambling to provide additional personnel and programs without fresh infusions of cash. ” Recently, lawmakers discovered they needed an extra $500 million to pay for an enrollment that exceeded projections by tens of thousands of students. In Miami-Dade alone, almost 15,000 foreign-born students registered in the first half of the 2000-2001 school year-after funding had already been calculated.

I wish the people across American would wake T-F up and understand your own states are going the same damn direction. Wake T-F up damnit! This invasion is not somehow caused by California, it's your own GD Federal Government that is allowing our country, and your damn state to be destroyed, while some of you stand on the side lines making ignorant remarks pointing fingers at Cal, while the same damn thing is happening right under your fat noses.

Florida is about 5 years behind your state at this point, but that differential could quickly decrease if the CommieLibs here succeed in getting a state income tax passed. Relax...I know we're all in this boat together. It's just that Kalifornia is closest to where the hull is breached.
