NASHVILLE, Tennessee - A new report puts a price tag on how much illegal immigrants cost Tennessee taxpayers.
It is close to $300 million every year, according to the study conducted the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), a nonprofit research group.
It contradicts a report by the state comptroller's office released in August that indicated undocumented immigrants boosted the economy and did not take jobs from any Tennessee workers.
