Under President Biden in fiscal year 2023, the United States absorbed more than 3 million illegal aliens--the highest number in its history. Since public schools must enroll minors regardless of immigration status, unchecked illegal migration over the past three years has possibly cost the public education system billions of dollars. Large influxes of non-English-speaking children also has a negative effect on the classroom. Not only must the federal government secure the border and prevent illegal migration, but states can, and must, also take action.
