INTRODUCTIONA. Do American tax-payers know what illegal immigration is costing them?B. I do not think the American tax-payers know the true cost of illegal immigration. Illegal immigrants are filling our school systems, most on free lunch and there isnt anything that the school systems can do to prevent this from happening. America is being burdened with rising social costs in healthcare, welfare, school lunches and lost scholarships for U.S. citizens due to the overwhelming numbers of illegal immigrants and the current translation of our laws.
