Fact check: How much does illegal immigration cost America? Not nearly as much as Trump claims.
"Frankly absurd," said one immigration policy expert of Trump's false claims that illegal immigration costs the U.S. more than $200 billion per year.

Trump says undocumented immigrants are an economic burden. They pay billions in taxes.
Unauthorized immigrants paid more than $20 billion in income taxes in 2015. They also fund Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security.
