It is know to be one of the biggest reasons for California expenditures.

Hard data would be politically incorrect, however.

Here's the budget.

ebudget.ca.gov

If we look at California's budget, we see the big items are K-12 education 46 B, heath & human services 39 B, corrections (prisons)10 B. That's 96 out of 144 B.

Here's a summary that dances around hard numbers.
ccsce.com

For all immigrants -
Figure about 20% of the K-12, 30% of the health & human services, and maybe 35% of corrections.

That's about 25 B roughly, or about 17% of the total 144 B budget.

The actual numbers may be higher or lower.

The illegal immigrants are at least half of this problem.
