States shell out billions for illegal immigrants while homeless veterans still languish: Study

A new study concludes that several states, as well as the federal government, spend billions of dollars on illegal immigrants while military veterans still languish on the streets as part of a devastating homeless epidemic in the United States.

The federal government spends roughly $217 billion on the Department of Veterans Affairs while the net financial burden of illegal immigrants on taxpayers annually is at least $132 billion, according to an analysis by the Federation for American Immigration Reform provided first to the Daily Caller News Foundation.
