Antonvich: Illegal Aliens Cost 'Los Angeles County' $291 Mil. in Services, Jan.-June

“Illegal immigration continues to cost Los Angeles County taxpayers nearly $2 billion dollars a year

Press Release | Thursday, Jul 23, 2015

[Supv. Antonovich] – Los Angeles County Mayor Michael D. Antonovich announced that the Department of Public Social Services issued $291 million in
welfare and food stamp benefits to illegal alien parents for their native-born children during the first six months of 2015. At this rate, the county will
spend nearly $600 million in benefits for illegal immigrants by the end of the year.


Approximately $110 million was spent in CalWORKs (welfare) and $180 million was spent in CalFresh (food stamps) from January thru June.

More than 20 percent of the county’s public welfare funds are spent on illegal immigrants. This does not include the $550 million spent on public safety,
nearly $500 million on healthcare, and hundreds of millions spent on education.


“Illegal immigration continues to cost County taxpayers nearly $2 billion dollars a year and siphons resources away from vital municipal services for
legal immigrants and county residents,” Antonovich said.

Cost of buying a gun in Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras: $50. Yes there are some proven anti gang methods.

Antonovich use to periodically issue such press releases but hasn't in a long time. This post from 2015 may even be his last regarding this subject. He was probably told to stop since it no longer matters to most of our politicians as we are a sanctuary state, mission accomplished here.

Sad.

I keep asking lawyers if the international protocol on driving privileges would trump driver's licenses for illegals, like California's recent law. I thought international treaties--so long as deemed constitutional--- were supposed to have authority over state law? Don't see Judicial Watch or FAIR's IRLI office taking this up.....
