As a Special Education teacher in the Clark County School District (CCSD), I can see where illegal immigration does cost CCSD money and other school districts all across the country, and the Federal goverment doesn't do anything about it.
As a school district, we have to educate kids who are not here illegally, through their parents. I understand that and I do understand the arguements from the liberals who want them educated in the U.S. instead of the their home country. I disagree with their reasoning, but I understand it.
Anyways, in Special Education, we are required to purchase equipment to help a student succeed or do the best they can in the school. So, if a student needs a wheelchair to move around the school, the school district has to purchase a wheelchair for the student. If the student is blind, we have to buy large computer monitors to help the child to read. If the child is deaf or needs a one on one aide because of their physical handicaps, an interpreter or 1:1 aide is needed, the school district has to pay for that. If a child needs other special equipment, often costing hundreds if not thousands of dollars, an illegal child gets the equipment and the school district has to pay for it.
If the child is here legally, the school district can bill Medicare and get reimbursed by the Feds. But since the child is here illegally, the school district is responsible for the costs. Why?
So, Harry Reid, what are you going to do about this? John Ensign, Dina Titus, Dean Heller and Shelly Berkley, what are you going to do about this? This is a federal problem, but the feds don't want to touch this problem.
This is a problem the federal government refuses to address and they are the one's responsible. Come on Harry Reid, help out the local school districts.
