The Consequences of Illegal Immigration for Housing Affordability, Government Budgets, and American Workers
Prepared Testimony of Steven A. Camarota Director of Research Center for Immigration Studies
For
U.S. House Oversight and Accountability Committee, Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs
Hearing entitled: “The Border Crisis: The Cost of Chaos”
Wednesday, September 25, 2024
'Summary: My testimony will focus on the impact of illegal immigration on housing affordability, public coffers, and American workers. Adding millions of people to the country through immigration drives up the cost of housing and reduces affordability relative to wages in areas of heavy settlement. Fiscally, illegal immigrants are a net drain — they create more in costs than they pay in taxes. This is primarily due to their low average education levels, which results in low average earnings and tax payments. Their lower incomes and education cause a large share to qualify for welfare programs, typically through their U.S.-born children. Illegal immigration also increases the supply of labor impacting the wages and employment of some American workers, often the poorest and least educated. Further, the availability of illegal immigrant workers allows American policymakers to ignore the decades-long increase in the share of working-age less-educated U.S.-born men not in the labor force — neither working nor looking for work. They are not counted as unemployed because they are not actively looking for work. This deterioration is linked to serious social pathologies such as crime, welfare dependency, suicide, and drug overdoses. Finally, illegal immigrants do increase the aggregate size of the U.S. economy, but overall GDP impact is not a measure of their tax contributions or economic benefits to the U.S.-born. Almost all the GDP increase goes to the illegal immigrants themselves in the form of wages.'
I know most of you arguing for illegal immigration will not read this nor the accompanying pdf, but I am putting it up there all the same. This is for those who really want to know the truth about what Congress is hearing, compared to what they are being told by media pundits. Keep in mind that this report was given before the Election while Biden was still in office.

"New research by Carol Swain, professor of law and political science at Vanderbilt University, found that illegal immigration is hurting African Americans. And, according to Professor Swain, the Congressional Black Caucus is not addressing this issue.
In her essay in the newly released volume Debating Immigration, which Professor Swain edited, she said that African Americans are losing more jobs to illegal immigrants than to other racial or ethic groups, yet low income black workers don’t have political input in the debate.
“African Americans have been left devoid of a strong black voice in Congress on a topic that affects them deeply, given their high unemployment rates and historic struggle to get quality housing, health care, education and other goods and services,” writes Professor Swain."
The Impact of Illegal Immigration on the Wages and Employment Opportunities of Black Workers
A Briefing Before The United States Commission on Civil Rights Held in Washington, DC Briefing Report
"The United States Commission on Civil Rights (Commission) is pleased to transmit this report, The Impact ofIllegal Immigration on the Wages and Employment Opportunities of Black Workers. A panel of experts briefed members of the Commission on April 4, 2008 regarding the evidence for economic loss and job opportunity costs to black workers attributable to illegal immigration. The panelists also described non-economic factors contributing to the depression of black wages and employment rates. Based on that discussion, the Commission developed the findings and recommendation that are included in this report.
Among its findings, the Commission notes that the illegal workers are estimated to account for as much as one-third of total immigrants in the United States, and that illegal immigration has tended to increase the supply of low-skilled, low-wage labor available. The Commission found also that about six in 10 adult black males have a high school diploma or less, and are disproportionately employed in the low-skilled labor market in likely competition with immigrants. Evidence for negative effects of such competition ranged from modest to significant, according to the experts who testified, but even those experts who viewed the effects as modest overall found significant effects in occupations such as meatpacking and construction."
Again, I know those of you arguing for illegal immigration will not read any of this, but this is here for those who desire to know what is really being said about the issue in the Halls of Power, and not what the laymen are receiving from the media pundits.

No I'm trying to equate the masses that rage against illegal immigrants from their privilege of being born here and not having to go through what those people did as that. I'm not losing a wink of sleep because an illegal immigrant is down the street from me. It has jack shyt to do with me and my life goes on. Being born in this country I had way more opportunity than they ever did and hell than they still do.
Leave them be if they aren't hurting anybody and move on.
I mean if you were born in the United States of America and you can't fend off an illegal immigrant for a job your life outlook is very bleak. To be honest the kinds of jobs illegal immigrants are getting I don't want to begin with and find undesirable so I'm coming from that perspective. If I was born in the USA I'd want more for myself than that.

First, so are you exposing that you are not from the US with this position about how people in the US should feel about illegal immigration?
Second, your sly attempt at trying to insult was useless, since I am a member of the upper middle class. I just know the actual stats and data on the bulk of the American population, especially my own ethnicity, and I understand that my position that I have obtained is not available to all of my people considering the hurdles we have to go through. So I have empathy for those in my own ethnicity who are not in the same socio-economic status that I am. Meaning, that I will always choose my own people over other groups, especially when those other groups are racist towards my people.
Last, are you even a Black person?

Well, I am immigrant myself 
although I am a legal immigrant. Got citizenship through my father. The silliest thing my dad did was not have me here considering he was already living in the U.S.
Is it crabs in the bucket? Yes, I know enough about the U.S to know the problem is not immigrants
. The biggest issue U.S citizens have right now is gross capitalism. There is no difference between Elon Musk(South African), Peter Thiel (german), Jeff Bezos (american) etc. etc. You have a billionaire/millionaire class who are not content with what they have, they want more. Everything is driven by as much profit as possible.
one of the biggest reasons why rent is so damn high

Most immigrants are just trying to seek a better life, will work dirt pay jobs if they are not citizens.
