What are the costs of illegal aliens to honest California families?
1. "For fiscal 2009-10, it's estimated that about $834 million will be spent to incarcerate 189,000 illegal immigrants in the state's prison system. In Los Angeles County alone, Supervisor Mike Antonovich says, illegal aliens add up to $550 million annually in criminal justice costs."
2. "At the college level, California is one of 10 states that grant the children of illegal aliens in-state tuition rates. The financial benefits of these programs to illegal aliens are as great as the penalty imposed on U.S. citizens and state treasuries. So if their parents sneak in from Guadalajara, they get a break that the children of an Iraq veteran from Nevada doesn't."
3. "In health care, the expected tab for 2009-10 is $703 million for as many as 700,000 illegals."
4. "They are educated by California taxpayers to the tune of $7,626 each for a total cost of nearly $2.3 billion."
That is just the tip of the $11 billion costs to California taxpayer--a major chunk of our deficit. Now you know why California is in the toilet.
