According to the National Science Foundation, using 2012-2018 data from the Texas Department of Public Safety, undocumented immigrants have substantially lower crime rates than native-born citizens and legal immigrants across a range of felony offenses.
US-born citizens are over 2 times more likely to be arrested for violent crimes, 2.5 times more likely to be arrested for drug crimes, and over 4 times more likely to be arrested for property crimes than undocumented immigrants.
Additionally, the proportion of arrests involving undocumented immigrants in Texas was relatively stable or decreasing over the 2012-2018 period.
After the tax reductions of 2017 the economy expanded until the 3rd quarter of 2019. At that point we reached essentially full employment and the economy stalled with a growth rate below 2.5%.
Additionally, 10-year projections by the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicate that the U.S. growth during the post Covid-19 recovery period will be “labor-force limited.”
According to recently published work by George Mason University, the U.S population in the absence immigration would fall to about 325 million by 2060, the portion of the population in the working force would fall to about 57%, and GDP would be about $32 trillion, which is 27% less than with current levels of immigration.
Scenarios with a more robust immigration policy invariably gave much better results.
Without a robust, immigration policy the United States is destined to become smaller, older, and poorer.

bolding mine
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Not only do undocumented immigrants have about half the crime rate of citizens, but they also play a greater role in improving the economy in this country, since they are willing to work harder for less, pay more taxes, and get no benefits.
That doesn't excuse for being a criminal entering the country illegally.
They do that BECAUSE they are undocumented aliens, it is how they stay in the country longer by taking what they can get to stay invisible from the police longer.
Your excuse is pathetic.
Illegal entry is a misdemeanor.
