Summary: The Negative Effects Of Illegal Immigration
Illegal immigration is a growing problem in the United States.

One of the negative effects of illegal immigration is the amount of money taxpayers have to pay to let illegal immigrants use state services. For instance, FAIR found that annually the estimated 195,000 illegal alien students and 481,000 U.S.-born children of illegal aliens place an $8.5 billion burden on taxpayers for education cost.

In some cases, US authorities must make deal with the other country before the fugitive is sent to stand trial in the US. And sometimes the authorities won’t do what the other country demands. This results in the criminal being a free
