Immigrants could erase the national deficit, but ICE costs $40B/year

To: Pres. Trump

From: A verified voter in Budd Lake, NJ

March 20

What happened to the party of fiscal responsibility and family values? Immigrants have contributed over $14TRILLION since 1994. ICE detention centers cost US $40B a year. So we are shooting ourselves in the foot twice, once for the wealth generated by undocumented workers and again for the drain on taxpayer dollars to pay $40 billion/year to run this ethnic cleansing concentration camp program. We get that you hate them. But you’re using tax dollars to fund your persecution. Where is the humanity? Where is the fiscal responsibility? If not cruelty, WHAT IS THE POINT?
