What do your resident experts say to this?

"A bipartisan Senate bill that would create a path to legal status for many of the 11.5 million undocumented immigrants in the United States could reduce deficits by $175 billion over the first 10 years and by at least $700 billion in the second decade.

That's according to an analysis released Tuesday by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office."[Immigration bill could cut deficits by $175 billion - CBO, CNNMoney, By Jeanne Sahadi, June 19, 2013]

It's "nonpartisan" so it must be true, right?

James Fulford writes: This has already been refuted by Robert Rector—see

• Experts Dispute CBO Report on Immigration Reform, BY  Noëlle Bernard, Washington Free Beacon, June 19, 2013
• Fuzzy Math: CBO Says Immigration Bill Reduces Federal Deficit, by Matthew Boyle, June 19, 2013

Also worth looking at, in this context, is the original Heritage report:

• The Fiscal Cost of Unlawful Immigrants and Amnesty to the U.S. Taxpayer
  By Robert Rector and Jason Richwine, Ph.D., May 6, 2013

Of course, the "long run" question is whether amnestied illegals and their "educated-at-US-taxpayer-expense" children will become productive members of society and net taxpayers. For that, you'd have look at Jason Richwine's Ph. D. thesis  “IQ and Immigration Policy” —which is what got Jason Richwine fired.
