That is a drastically higher estimate than the cost of illegal immigration I have seen other places. Indeed I have seen in other reports that illegal immigration is a net economic positive. This cato report says that report is fatally flawed [1]. Among other things the outlandish figure of 113b is easily corrected to 3-15b. And this article strongly suggests its a net positive in reality. See also [2], [3].
So you need an estimate that passes the laugh test.
