APRIL WELFARE COSTS FOR CHILDREN OF ILLEGAL ALIENS EXCEEDS $52 MILLION

May 28, 2010—Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich released figures from the Department of Public Social Services showing that in April 2010, $52 million in welfare benefits ($22 million CalWORKs + $30 million in Food Stamps) were issued to parents who reside in the United States illegally and collect benefits for their native-born children in Los Angeles County. This amounts to approximately 23% of all CalWORKs and Food Stamp issuances in the County.

In 2009, CalWORKs and Food Stamp issuances to illegals totaled nearly $570 million. The total costs for CalWORKs and Food Stamps for children of illegal aliens has risen steadily by an additional $1 million cost to the taxpayers each month since January 2009.


“When you add this to $540 million for public safety and nearly $500 million for healthcare, the total cost for illegal immigrants to County taxpayers far exceeds $1 billion a year – not including the hundreds of millions of dollars for education,” said Antonovich.

===============================

Schwarzenegger still wants that governor's meeting though. So does Bill Richardson.

Perhaps they can find a host down in Mexico City.

Excuse me, but Californians know why we are broke. Remember at one time like Arizona we tried to stop this. We didn't get support from the rest of the U.S., because it hadn't came to your doorsteps yet.

Our state government is now full of hispanics due to the increase of votes from anchor babies, etc. I really don't like Schwarzenegger, but living here and watching our politics I have to say he has vetoed a lot of bills our legislature have tried to pass for illegal aliens. Like Cedillo's famous driver license bill for illegal aliens. Last count Cedillo has tried to get this past our governor 10 times.

Right on montereysherry, let's tell the truth about this. Does anyone really think Californians don't know why our schools are failing, our city and county budgets are running huge deficits, library closings, the only people with jobs in many California towns are the government workers and the ones working for non-profits who are making their living off of illegals and their needs.

If it isn't like this in your area, wait a minute, it's on the way.

HE'S AN IDIOT TOO :!:

I have never seen an article about what it costs NYC. NEVER!

The people here in NYC and the state of NY are deprived of statistics that "The Powers that Be" know and control. Now tell me that's NOT A CONSPIRACY!

Ca you have no idea what fear is .
Remember the Boycotts you imposed on AZ for
all Buss based contracts?

Did you ever think about the fact that we supply 35% of all your electricity ...lights out !
The splinter groups you lined-up for 15 sec of national news media carrying hate signs.
Most of these group could not read much less know the difference between sn-1070 or refried beans, but it continued on for weeks.

Did CA ever disclose the fact that you have a law very close to Sn-1070 , which natually you don't enforce since your proud of being Sanctuary.
AZ utliized CA as model and refused to become Sanctuary.
But I'm certain you don't know that.

Did you ever consider standing with us as as Border State?
who also got funding for your fence from the FED GOv't.

WE know why we are broke in AZ.
It's called illegal immigrartion and a NARCO WAR of terror going on our border and also now inside of AZ.
Did you ever think once of standing with us?

Smell the fear and think after you sniff the air when you come out of that rabbit hole..It's a real cesspool isn't it.

Your boycotts and all other failure to help us here touched the consciousness of America.

In AZ we will enforce all laws against illegal immigration with or without sn-1070'. We also knowwaht fear is.

And oh my gosh Arnold did blocked that bill about illegals driving...How about the 600 gang bangers and the 94% outstanding warrants for violent crime all for illegals living where you are.

One more point I'm certain most people will get.
The word backlash works in both directions.
After your continued bashing of AZ . paid for by AZ citizens,
we posted a huge sign in Sp ( no racial profiling please) and gave instructions for all illegal living here to leave.
Go to the land of milk and honey go West..
'Over 100,000 have left and we need another 400,000 to leave.

So if your broke in CA sell Queen Nancy jet paid for by the good citizens of CA.
Use it for illegal deportaion flights , that would be a good place to start.

duda - I can understand your being upset with California, but before spouting off, maybe you should get your facts straight. First off if you would check the polls, you would find most Californians support Arizona's bill.

And you really think these groups represent California? These groups represent what is wrong in California, we fight against these groups everyday.

You really have this one wrong. Yes Californian passed an immigration law similiar to Arizona's. The people voted and passed it. We were sued and it got held up in the courts. That is the only reason it is not enforced. Yes Arizona used our law as a model and hopefully learned from our mistakes and wrote it better.

Did Arizona ever consider standing with California as a Border State? Did any state ever stand with California when we were fighting for Immigration laws?

There are many cities and counties in California that have come out in support of Arizona. Evidently you have only heard the ones that don't support Arizona. There are cities and citizens in Arizona that don't support the law.

Back at you!

This post shows me how out of touch the rest of America has been towards California. California was a once great state. We were invaded, not only by illegal immigrants, but by all of the liberal riff-raff across this country.

Now once again we feel abandoned. Abandoned not only by the other citizens like duda who like to take potshots at us without bothering to know the facts, but by the Californians that have tucked tail and fled our state rather than stay and fight.

Just remember as California goes, so goes the rest of the country.

Sherr,
I feel a heart felt sorow for the ciitzens of CA and what you has been left behind by others to fix.
I am talking about YO I'm speaking about your State.

Do you have any idea the damage that CA did to our economy when you called out to Boycott..
AZ has been in fiscal sesions four tjmes since Jan. 2010 for emergency session to starve off banckruptcy.
We know What fear is.

For clarity: We dd not use "your law as a model for sn-1070..."
we mirror sn-1070 after the Fed.Law...
What we used a an example there is refusing to submit to Sancturay status, which you know is CA , and as say your, liberal leadership ,
becasue we wiil enforce the laws.

Yes there are tweet in support for AZ based on??? I'm not certain what.. but.
Sherry, The " way that CA goes , so does the counrty is so out-dated" and NOT viable now.
The country does not want to become CA.
You , and I certain others there want to change CA.
