Illegal Migration Has Cost Americans $150.7B

As of the beginning of 2023, the net cost of illegal immigration for American taxpayers altogether, including federal, state, and local costs, was at least $150.7 billion—and under Biden, it’s going up steeply all the time.

Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) came out with a report on the heavy cost of illegal migration in America in March. FAIR noted that the net cost of illegal immigration was about $116 billion as of 2017, meaning that almost $35 billion has been expended just in five years’ time. The cost to each individual taxpayer is $1,156 annually.
