Florida faces costs due to immigration, study finds - (from the ‘anti-immigration’ Center for Immigration Studies)

Florida, with the nation’s third largest immigrant population, faces rising costs linked to higher poverty rates, lower educational achievement and lack of medical insurance that plague those families, according to a report released today.

The study was conducted by the Center for Immigration Studies, a think tank in Washington, D.C., that favors enforcement against illegal immigration. Based on March 2007 figures from the U.S. Census Bureau’s population survey, the study is the latest attempt to quantify the impact of the rising tide of immigrants, whether they come here legally or not.
