Illegal immigrant population grew by 1 million in Biden's first year, analysis finds

The illegal immigrant population in the United States increased by roughly 1 million during President Joe Biden‘s first year in office, according to a new analysis.

A study from the Federation for American Immigration Reform viewed by Fox News estimates that the population of illegal immigrants had jumped from 14.5 million in 2020 up to 15.5 million. The analysis from the conservative group found that the increased numbers cost taxpayers at least $143.1 billion, a $9.4 billion increase from 2020.
