Antonovich. The $636 million consisted of $234 million in CalWORKs (welfare) and $402 million in CalFresh (food stamps) — a $14 million increase over the previous year. More than 20% of the County’s public welfare funds are spent on illegal immigrants. “With the $520 million for public safety and nearly $500 million for healthcare, the total cost for illegal immigrants to County taxpayers exceeds $1 billion dollars a year,” said Antonovich. “These costs do not include the hundreds of millions of dollars for education.” Click the link below to view the 2012 Fgures from the LA County Department of Public Social Services: antonovich/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/2012-Figures-from-the-LA-County-Department-of-Public-Social-Services-.pdf
