Letter writer was way off the mark on illegal immigration

Mr. Wynhausen, in his March 11 rebuttal, is way off the mark and his sources are outdated regarding the costs of illegal immigration.

My data was obtained from Robert Rector of The Heritage Foundation, who recently addressed Congress on the subject. I would suggest that Mr. Wynhausen listen to the actual verbiage of that meeting, instead of quoting figures from 2004.
