Original Note:
"..putting them all on public benefits.." is bit misleading, Federal law prohibits illegals from receiving public benefits like SNAP and SSN. Some states, like NY, does hand out hospital treatment only in emergencies. https://www.nysenate.gov/newsroom/articles/james-l-seward/what-benefits-can-illegal-aliens-receive#:~:text=Federal%20rules%20generally%20bar%20illegal,emergency%20disaster%20relief%20or%20immunization. https://immigrationforum.org/article/fact-sheet-immigrants-and-public-benefits/ https://www.brookings.edu/articles/welfare-benefits-for-non-citizens/
