Economist warns amnesty for aliens would cost trillions
Rice University economist Donald L. Huddle says granting amnesty to about 5.5 million undocumented workers could cost U.S. taxpayers at least 1 trillion dollars over 35 years. He estimated 65 U.S. workers lose jobs per 100 illegal aliens and projected annual costs of 25 billion dollars, based on unemployment, social services, and tax losses. The claim drew sharp pushback from Hispanic leaders including Ruben Bonilla who called it scare tactics and questioned the study’s realism.
