New report says illegal alien population may be as high as 38 million

Californians for Population Stabilization (CAPS) has published a new report that finds the Homeland Security Department "grossly underestimates" the number of illegal aliens living in the U.S. While Homeland Security officially estimated the illegal aliens population between eight and 12 million, CAPS estimates there are between 20 and 38 million illegal aliens living in the U.S.

The authors of the CAPS report discussed their findings before the National Press Club in early October. One of the authors, James Walsh, a former associate general counsel of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, said he is "appalled" that the Bush administration, lawyers on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and every Democratic presidential candidate except Joe Biden, have no problem with sanctuary cities in the U.S. for illegal aliens.

"Sanctuary cities and the people who support them are violating the laws of the United States of America. It's a felony to violate 8 USC section 1324 and 1325, that is, to aid, support, transport, shield, harbor illegal aliens," Walsh stated.

Walsh's analysis indicated there are 38 million illegal aliens in the U.S. It was calculated using a conservative estimate of three illegal immigrants entering the U.S. for each one apprehended. According to Walsh, "In the United States, immigration is in a state of anarchy -- not chaos, but anarchy."
