How much does every illegal immigrant cost to taxpayers
According to the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), the cost of illegal immigration has been increasing since 2011.
In a report released Wednesday, the organization reported that maintaining an illegal immigrant costs the taxpayer about $ 70 000, which is about seven times the cost of deportation.
CIS also reported that taxes paid by illegal immigrants are not enough to offset the cost of the services they use, reading the cost of which is $ 70 billions a year.
The organization also said that overall, immigration in 2016 reached record levels: more than 1,7, a million people arrived in the United States in legal and illegal ways.
The report was released while President Trump continues to strengthen his position on immigration in connection with the approaching caravan of immigrants, which through Mexico moves to the borders of the United States.
This report comes as President Trump continues to double his position on immigration in the face of the influx of non-citizens accused of bordering the so-called caravan migrant.
President Trump called the US border "sacred" and assured that no one from the caravan could enter the country illegally. The presidents said in an interview with Axios that planning to sign an executive order to end the practice of allowing children of non-American citizens who are born in the United States to obtain American citizenship.
