Excerpt from Impact of Illegal Immigration on Public Benefit Programs and the American Labor Force: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Immigration and Claims of the Committee on the Judiciary, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session, April 5, 1995 A copy of the new study is included as an appendix to the present study as is the critique of the Urban Institute's claims of cost-free immigration, not illegal immigration, however, as Michael Fix had said that there is agreement that that particular category is - results in a fiscal deficit, but where the main disagreement is certainly on legal immigration and its cost. The third study I present today updates my study of the cost of illegal immigration only. It omits the categories of amnesty and legal immigration. This third study finds that in 1994, the esti mated cost of between 4 and million illegal immigrants and their citizen children had net public cost to taxpayers from $16 to billion. After subtracting the taxes they paid at the local, Federal, and State levels, included in this total is to bil lion for assistance to the estimated to low-skilled Americans and pro-1970 immigrants displaced by the largely un skilled and undereducated illegal immigrants. Note that a range of estimates are applied in order to cover the reasonable differences in the professional opinion of the number of illegal aliens residing in the United States as of 1994. The low esti mate of 4 million illegals as of 1994, is by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
