Luckily they’re starting with Il. Get them all.
And those are the ones that are accounted for. Face it, between 10-15 million illegal immigrants entered this country under the Biden/ Harris/Myorkas stewardship of the borders.

Come on Illinois. Show your liberal bona fides. You can do better than 420,000. You need to double that. Who do you think is going to keep voting for all those democrats in your state? The more illegals, the more rational they have for raising your taxes. Now pony up like the good little subservient ignorant slaves that you are. After all, you deserve everything that you vote for.
Keep in mind that these are Biden Administration numbers. Other estimates are much higher.
