We don’t know how Trump determined that the cost of i*****l i*********n "so far this year" is $18,959,495,168, or that the "cost Friday was $603,331,392."
Trump’s tweet ends with "DHS" — the acronym for the Department of Homeland Security, which is responsible for the enforcement of i*********n l*ws. We asked DHS and the White House to provide the research Trump used for his claim. Neither presented information.
Last month, Trump claimed i*****l i*********n cost the United States $250 billion a year. We rated that False because even the highest estimates we found were nowhere near $250 billion.
The right-leaning Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) estimated in a September 2017 report that the federal, state and local costs of more than 12.5 million people in the United States illegally was around $135 billion. After calculating this population’s tax contributions, the group said the total economic impact of i*****l i*********n was around $116 billion (up from $113 billion in 2013).
Our ruling
Trump said, "We are not even into February and the cost of i*****l i*********n so far this year is $18,959,495,168. Cost Friday was $603,331,392. There are at least 25,772,342 i*****l a***ns, not the 11,000,000 that have been reported for years, in our Country."
The source of Trump’s claim is unclear. We asked DHS and the White House to back Trump’s statement, but neither provided studies or any other data to support it.
Trump previously falsely claimed that the cost of i*****l i*********n was $250 billion a year. Even the highest annual estimates we found were significantly lower than that amount ($116 billion, after factoring in tax contributions).
Most estimates say there are around 11 million immigrants in the country illegally. A recent study from Yale University researchers said a mean number was 22.1 million, but several demographers have pointed flaws in the assumptions and findings of that study.
Without evidence from Trump or his administration to back this statement, we rate it False.
