The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Aliens on Washingtonians examines the cost of providing services and benefits to the state's 275,000 illegal aliens and 104,000 dependent U.S.-born children. The report also looks at the costs associated with the administration of criminal justice and incarceration of criminal illegal aliens.
Among the key findings of The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Aliens on Washingtonians:
  • The cost of providing K-12 education to an estimated 127,000 children of illegal aliens (including students who are themselves illegal and the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens) amounts to $1.6 billion annually.
  • Washington voluntarily provides $3.8 million annually in subsidized in-state tuition benefits for illegal aliens attending public colleges and universities, even as public higher education budgets are being slashed.
  • Unreimbursed health care and social assistance programs cost Washingtonians $652 million a year.
  • Justice and law enforcement costs associated with illegal aliens add $172 million to the state's tab.
Washington Taxpayers Foot $2.7 Billion Annual Bill for Illegal Immigration, Finds New Study by FAIR - PR Newswire - The Sacramento Bee

It would be interesting to get the total bill from each state. I'm sure it would be in the trillons.
