tbell@bos.lacounty.gov APRIL WELFARE COSTS FOR CHILDREN OF ILLEGAL ALIENS EXCEEDS $52 MILLION May 28, 2010—Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich released figures from the Department of Public Social Services showing that in April 2010, $52 million in welfare benefits ($22 million CalWORKs + $30 million in Food Stamps) were issued to parents who reside in the United States illegally and collect benefits for their native-born children in Los Angeles County. This amounts to approximately 23% of all CalWORKs and Food Stamp issuances in the County. In 2009, CalWORKs and Food Stamp issuances to illegals totaled nearly $570 million. The total costs for CalWORKs and Food Stamps for children of illegal aliens has risen steadily by an additional $1 million cost to the taxpayers each month since January 2009. “When you add this to $540 million for public safety and nearly $500 million for healthcare, the total cost for illegal immigrants to County taxpayers far exceeds $1 billion a year – not including the hundreds of millions of dollars for education,” said Antonovich. | | 2009 | CalWORKs | FOOD STAMPS | CalWORKs + FOOD STAMPS | MONTH | | TOTAL | ILLEGALS | TOTAL | ILLEGALS | TOTAL | ILLEGALS | | January | $82,761,595 | $20,837,263 | $92,247,354 | $21,037,086 | | $175,008,949 | $41,874,349 | February | $83,451,025 | $21,166,749 | | $93,918,639 | $21,540,326 | $177,369,664 | $42,707,075 | March | | $84,994,290 | $21,547,995 | $96,232,122 | $22,201,424 | $181,226,412 | $43,749,419 | | April | $86,199,153 | $21,734,461 | $112,847,791 | $25,934,814 | | $199,046,944 | $47,669,275 | May | $86,420,038 | $21,782,246 | | $114,895,102 | $26,141,888 | $201, 315,140 | $47,924,134 | June | | $87,611,378 | $21,906,631 | $116,841,880 | $26,515,762 | $204,453,258 | $48,422,393 | | July | $85,296,850 | $21,162,630 | $119,970,538 | $27,045,847 | | $205,267,388 | $48,208,477 | August | $85,797,283 | $21,165,982 | | $121,171,353 | $27,210,260 | $206,968,636 | $48,376,242 | September | | $87,625,305 | $21,404,981 | $124,120,851 | $27,774,459 | $211,746,156 | $49,179,440 | | October | $88,481,754 | $21,523,049 | $126,799,636 | $28,346,166 | | $215,281,390 | $49,869,215 | November | $88,050,522 | $21,595,661 | | $128,169,841 | $28,477,064 | $216,220,363 | $50,072,725 | December | | $89,385,780 | $21,918,503 | $130,963,355 | $29,188,963 | $220,349,135 | $51,107,466 | | TOTAL | $1,036,074,973 | $257,746,151 | $1,378,178,462 | $311,414,059 | | $2,414,253,435 | $569,160,210 |
