The cost to educate young illegal immigrants over $761 million - a bill for all 50 states
 
By Jennifer Harper - The Washington Times - Monday, September 8, 2014

ANALYSIS/OPINION:

The complexities of illegal immigration continues. One new estimate places the annual cost for state governments to educate unaccompanied minor immigrants at $761,405,907 a year - this according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a non-profit interest group which based its findings on federal data. Tax-payer funded classes conducted in Spanish or indigenous languages from Central America, plus free or reduced cost school meals contribute to the cost.
