WESB News: 04/09/08 - Illegal Alien Bills Passes in Senate
Illegal aliens who live in Pennsylvania will no longer be eligible for public benefits, including Medicaid, welfare and in-state college tuition, under legislation sponsored by Senate President Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati that was approved today by the Senate.
Senate Bill 9 would also ensure that the Commonwealth’s more than 100,000 illegal aliens face tighter scrutiny when applying for services.
The Federation for Immigration Reform estimates the current local annual costs of illegal immigration from just three program areas amount to about $36 billion nationwide.
In Pennsylvania, the current estimated cost is $285 million. That cost is expected to grow to $812 million by the year 2020.
