Are children of illegal aliens bankrupting Maryland?

Maryland’s foreign-born population has grown by 34.6 percent while its native-born population has increased by 3.3 percent. .Public school enrollment of students who require special instruction in English has soared even more, rising by 93.5 percent from 2000 to 2008 while overall enrollment declined slightly.

A pair of recently released documents on illegal aliens in Maryland discuss the effect the spending has had on the state treasury. Both agree the cash-strapped state is spending at least $448 million on children of undocumented aliens per year and more than $100 million on health care costs.

The difference is in how one counts citizens born to parents who are in the state illegally. For example, the Federation for American Immigration Reform includes children of illegals when it compiles its figures. As a consequence, FAIR reports Marylanders spend more than $966 million annually on education for an estimated 80,800 children of illegal aliens. Nearly $250 million is spent on providing special English instruction to an estimated 35,000 children of illegal aliens. About 9.6 percent of the K-12 public school students in Maryland are children of illegal aliens.

The Immigration Policy Center excluded U.S. children of illegals when it countered the FAIR report this week. It says 68 percent (or $966.4 million) of FAIR’s “$1.4 billionâ€

They think it's bad there but it is nothing comapred to South Florida. It is bankrupting us big time.

As this NYT article states, Anchor Babies do NOT replace Native White Americans with high paying jobs: The politics of race replacement is ignoring IQ, at devistating consequenses, no police, schools or fire depts! No infrastructure, basicly, we are looking at Mexico in America SOON!

Go to South Florida and areas like the City of Miami and Miami Dade County and you see it first hand. The City of Miami Police Department is up there with NYPD and LAPD for police corruption. All you need to do is look at the names and/or pictures of those caught and it is blatently obvious. People here call south Florida a banana republic or 4th world.

There is an old saying: will the last American to leave Miami, please bring the flag.
In the 1980s, going to take a state exam for licensure, had the choice of Miami or Orlando. Joke was that you need to be well-armed to go to Miami.
I have never had problems in Miami and I love Cuban food, but apparently, from what you say, swatchick, the Cuban populace is overrun by Spanish-speaking illegals.

This is why statistics showing the costs of illegal immigrants to taxpayers are inaccurate; the biggest costs are to provide education, health care, welfare, free lunches, etc. to their U.S. citizen anchor babies which aren't included in these statistics.
