Florida spent about $2 billion on education, health care, and prisons, due to illegal immigration, in 1994, according to research by the Urban Institute.
The total
costs of illegal immigration to
Florida's taxpayers would have been
much higher if additional costs not
included in the three major
categories were tallied...
That was, $2 billion ---14 years ago!
Wasn't the budget shortfall in 2008 over
$5 billion?
