I haven't checked to make sure this is true or maybe old news and I'm taking too many meds to be bothered today.https://www.boundless.com/blog/boundles ... on-report/Immigrants in the U.S. contributed more than $330.7 billion in federal income taxes in 2019, and over $492 billion dollars in total taxes (including state, municipal, and sales taxes).

Here's one from AP though:
https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-i ... 3035929946Likewise, Michael Clemens, a professor of economics at George Mason University, said “undocumented immigrants pay taxes, amounting to tens of billions of dollars in local, state, and federal taxes per year” — even though they can’t access most benefits that U.S. citizens are entitled to receive.
The Social Security Administration estimated in 2010, for example, that such immigrants contribute $12 billion per year more to the Social Security system than they take out, he noted.
