In a a news blog published in the New York Times by Mike Nizza, one of my many concerns was answered. About how much does it caused to deport an illegal immigrant?
Deportation is not only having a negative impact on children it also impacts the US economy.Deportation of illegal immigrants is very expensive for the US economy.
Senator Susan M. Collins, Republican, of Maine, was told by Julie L. Myers, chief of Immigrations and Customs Enforcement that the cost of trying to locate, detain and deport all of the 12 million people who are here illegally is minimum $94 billion.
Congress’s budget is $205 billion for everything in the US, which requires them to cut the budgets of other programs.These are the types of information the government needs to take into consideration before making any immigration reform or passing any new laws.
Illegal immigrants need to be punish for breaking the laws but there must be a more affordable method that does not deal with separating families and cutting useful programs, such as proving more financial support for health care and education.
