Border Dividend: Reductions In the Number of Foreign Students Requiring English-Learning Reduces the Cost of Education in Texas and Florida By Nearly $1 Billion in a Single Year

Well, between $835 million to $890 million.

A border enforcement dividend we can all share.


Declines in the number of English-learning students enrolled in Florida and Texas public schools during the 2025--26 school year were associated with an estimated $835 million to $890 million reduction in education funding across the two states, according to an American Accountability Foundation report obtained exclusively by Breitbart News.

The July 23 memorandum, issued by Thomas Jones of the American Accountability Foundation and addressed to the Republican Governors Association, attributes the enrollment changes to the Trump administration's immigration-enforcement policies following several years of increases under former President Joe Biden.

"In Florida the news is good; in Texas, where the drop far outpaced the overall enrollment trend, the news is great," the report states.

Florida classifies students actively receiving English-language-learner instruction under the designation "LY." That population increased from 277,473 during the 2021--22 school year to 368,068 in 2024--25, an increase of 90,595 students, or 32.7 percent.

During 2025--26, however, the number fell by 23,641 students to 344,427, representing a 6.4 percent decline and the first decrease in the period examined by AAF.

AAF said the number of students entering post-exit monitoring continued to rise, which it argued showed that students were "not dropping out mid-program" and that the decline instead reflected fewer new English learners entering Florida schools.

The Florida Education Finance Program funds English-learning students through an English for Speakers of Other Languages cost factor of 1.165, or 16.5 percent above the base amount. Using a Base Student Allocation of $5,372.60, AAF calculated average total funding of approximately $9,122.93 per student during 2025--26.

Texas saw a similar Border Enforcement Dividend.

"The data is clear -- ending Biden's open borders leads to a lower burden on education budgets," AAF concluded. "Put more simply, supporting the President's border-enforcement and deportation policies means more funding for your local schools -- nearly one billion dollars in these two states alone, in a single year."

What are you going to buy with your Border Enforcement Dividend?

Of course, the NEA, Dems, and the Left all see this as a negative. They want more money wasted on education budgets. States will see this as a loss in revenue from the federal fisc.

26 It's great and predictable that this would happen. But the systematic collapse of public education and the jaw-dropping alien idiocy of the "educators" present a massive problem.

Among the many, many, many disastrous sorts of damage done by mass illegal migration for decades has been the (additional?) destruction of learning environments, as English became a minority language in many classrooms. Districts in border areas have been getting ravaged by this for decades now.

So you take a systematically derailed, dumbed-down, and even freakazoid "education" situation, and add sudden massive non-native speakers to it. Sort of the 50 ton teak log that broke the camel's back in some places.

41 Little's first game in the tournament ended with a 10-7 win, and after going down 7 in the first inning, they went 4-2-2-2 unanswered runs. Little didn't pitch or see any fielding action, but his plate appearances resulted in BB and 3rd strike drop reaching 1st.

They battled hard and never let up. Awesome game (for us) to watch.

48 This is why America could get away with so much immigration for a century.
If you got here, good for you, now go get a job or starve.
Immigrants learned real quick how to go along to get along and work to live, which meant learning English or getting stuck in an enclave somewhere in a city.

You cannot have a modern functioning country with open borders and a welfare state.
Not only will it draw people in who otherwise wouldn't come, but it will also add enormous costs to all public services in the numbers of users and the tax rates to pay for it all.

That's the thing libertarians and naive socialists just don't understand.

The globalist & communists understand just fine.

But one of the talk radio shows threw out that 105 million adults are not in the workforce, and this is higher than during covid. That particular radio host blames the iran war causing higher fuel prices, but I don't believe that can be the main driver.

But the feral government is way less hostile to business under Trump than under the Barky and Bribem regimes and yet people are having a hard time finding jobs. I don't think AI can be that big of a factor yet, and a decent # of Bribem's flood of illegals have been removed.

The only thing I can think of and this is a wild guess is that enough dirty communists have infiltrated HRs and those communists want a bad economy to boost D election results, so they are shredding applications, then telling management they can't find qualified candidates to purposefully hurt the economy.

67 Franpsycho do you recall the beautiful, ridiculous case of the anti-bilingual ed proposition in CA, and the "resistance" that continued even after?

What was so great was how it outlined the degradation of the electorate, how voters were unaware of or indifferent to almost anything that didn't immediately, personally, negatively affect (not "impact") them. Assuming they even understood the foregoing factors, which of course many don't.

Asian parents went apeshit (in the humorous imagined rant of the time, "I swam to get here so my kids would be Americans, and YOU'RE TEACHING THEM KHMER/VIETNAMESE/THAI??????!"). Proposition ending the idiocy passed comfortably. "Educators" of course refused to comply in some cases, the crap had to be stamped out district by district in some cases.

Sort of a precursor to the lawlessness that now is the norm in many parts of national life.

Everything else

Literally everything. It's pure national suicide. And thus, the Democrats orgasm over it and push all the things that lead to it.

Leads one to wonder why they don't all immigrate to someplace they feel would better suit their mindset. And then, just soak in the Socialism or Communism or an Islamic shit hole and be done with it.

The idea that they're going to force feed this to all of us is... misplaced.

In NY they actually pay the school districts by the number of illegals they take in. It’s a lucrative business. There is one school in the lower NY Hudson Valley who apparently build a brand new stadium with all that federal and state taxpayer money.

He pulled that garbage # from somewhere. And my housemate is struggling to get a job in retail that will be over 20 hours/week and somewhat decent pay. We are in Denver metro area, so the communist brake on business is still in effect here. But it used to be easier to find work around here a couple years ago and the commies were in charge then as well. I don't think the commies actually own many businesses, but even small businesses often use some sort of external HR system, only takes AI being stupid and recommending a small set of people for all the jobs and of course they can only take one; or some malice. The AI screens may have malice built in if they were trained by commies.

101 Famously, for decades after the Spanish-American War the US allowed Filipinos to emigrate through Angel Island into SF, mostly as farmworkers -- but only males. Why? Becuase, as the authorities learned, the females mostly ended up working as prostitutes. Sad but true fact. So to try to stop the out-of-control prostitution rate in San Francisco, they wouldn't let Filipina women in, between 1901 and 1945.

As a result, SF was during that time filled with thousands of lonely, single Filipino guys, most of whom were short, darker-skinned dudes from the poor tribes on the outer islands. Anothert sad but true fact: It was pretty much unthinkable for white ladies in those days to marry short, brown, poor foreign tribesmen. "Dating"? Pre-marital sex? I don't think so.

So for decades, lasting up though the 1980s, there were thousands of lonely sad aging Filipino guys wandering around SF, mostly congregating in the mid-Market area, hanging around the "Fascination" parlors and pool halls.

It wa sa thing that everyone knew about and witnessed, but no one ever talked about.

Looks like they will but the judge did everything to prevent a record

@Philosophi_Cat
What Shiloh Hendrix's lawyer is reporting here is concerning. He raises many concerning issues, but what stands out to me most is that the judge repeatedly left the bench, interrupted him, or talked over him every time he tried to make a record.

The fact that it happened over and over suggests that she understood he was trying to preserve an appellate issue and she didn't want him to create a detailed record about what evidence she had excluded and why the defence believed those rulings were wrong. Once or twice would be one thing, but when it happened every time, it comes across like she was trying to systematically prevent the defence from creating the paper trail that would be needed to challenge those rulings on appeal.

I understand that Shiloh's team is working on getting the transcript of the trial made available, but it is extremely expensive, so please consider making a donation to (see pinned post on Tom Hennessy's page) to help get this done so we can have some transparency about what went on in the courtroom.

I suppose there must have been some, but in that era, there was very little intra-Asian mixing at all -- Chinese stayed with Chinese, Japanese with Japanese, etc., so I don't think there was much action for the Filipino guys, who had practicaly no potential mates in the US.

All this changed after WWII, when immigration from the Philippines was greatly relaxed, as a reward for being a strong ally against the Japs in WWII. So finally both genders were allowed in, and the male/female ration started to normalize. But even then -- would an 18-year-ld Filipina girl marry a sad poor 60-year-old Filipino guy? Probably not. So the loneliness problem persisted, now due to the age gap, not the race gap.

149 The rapid pace at which the U.S. is expending some of its most advanced air-defense interceptors and precision-guided weapons in the Middle East is a point of great tension inside the Trump administration as President Trump's war with Iran ratchets up again, according to U.S. military and intelligence officials familiar with internal assessments. And it's raising broader concerns about America's readiness for a potential conflict in the Indo-Pacific.

The dwindling stockpiles of defensive interceptors and long-range missiles have become a pressure point for top military and civilian leaders who are weighing the demands of the war with Iran against maintaining readiness to deter other adversaries, including China.

156 101 Famously, for decades after the Spanish-American War the US allowed Filipinos to emigrate through Angel Island into SF, mostly as farmworkers -- but only males. Why? Becuase, as the authorities learned, the females mostly ended up working as prostitutes. Sad but true fact. So to try to stop the out-of-control prostitution rate in San Francisco, they wouldn't let Filipina women in, between 1901 and 1945.

As a result, SF was during that time filled with thousands of lonely, single Filipino guys, most of whom were short, darker-skinned dudes from the poor tribes on the outer islands. Anothert sad but true fact: It was pretty much unthinkable for white ladies in those days to marry short, brown, poor foreign tribesmen. "Dating"? Pre-marital sex? I don't think so.

So for decades, lasting up though the 1980s, there were thousands of lonely sad aging Filipino guys wandering around SF, mostly congregating in the mid-Market area, hanging around the "Fascination" parlors and pool halls.

It was a thing that everyone knew about and witnessed, but no one ever talked about.

Workplace/employer enforcement is the key to any serious immigration law restoration. Getting rid of the "worst of the worst" is nice and all, but it's a small part of the problem.

ace had video in a previous thread today of primary candidate Obama saying we need to go after the employers.

DOJ or Stephen Miller should play that thing to death as they announce a new strategy in the battle against illegal immigration: going after employers, aka The Obama Option. They ought to name it so often that Obama himself is finally forced to come out and "clarify."

I don't think it is, though.

It said that supplies of air-defense interceptors are under even greater strain, as the U.S. burns through a significant share of prewar inventories of THAAD, SM-3 missiles and Patriots. These weapons face production timelines of up to five years.

Remember, we and most NATO members sent these interceptors to Ukraine by the plane load.

I don't doubt we've expended tens of thousands ourselves since the start just defending our bases in the M.E.

So are we in dire straits at the moment?
I don't think so.

From the WSJ:
Bahrain and Kuwait secretly sent jets to attack sites inside Iran, their first such direct retaliation against Tehran and an indication of the difficult position Arab states find themselves in as the war grinds on, people familiar with the matter said.

The airstrikes early this month targeted drone- and missile-storage depots, among other military sites, some of the people said. The United Arab Emirates—which attacked Iran multiple times early in the war—provided intelligence on targets and defensive air cover for the strikes in a sign of budding Arab cooperation in confronting Iran, those people said.

Yes, the same policy also applied to Chinese immigrants, for the same reason (women-->presumed prostitutes), but was less strictly enforced -- plus there was already a pre-existing mixed-gender Chinese population in California from the era before immigration was controlled, so although there was also an epidemic of lonely Chinese men, it wasn't as extreme as with the Filipino guys, since there were at least some mates available.

In pretty much all these societies there were plenty of strata of 'race pure' people who were in the wrong caste of society and were also persona non grata.

The US is one of the few places to have such a distinctively visible race and very weak class structure to base modern liberal's world view on.

To get Shiloh Hendrix convicted, the judge refused to allow the jury to return home for a MISDEMEANOR trial.

This is completely unheard of.

Deliberations went on for OVER EIGHT HOURS until it was after 10PM and the rest of the jury caved because they wanted to go home.

222 Yes, the same policy also applied to Chinese immigrants, for the same reason (women-->presumed prostitutes), but was less strictly enforced -- plus there was already a pre-existing mixed-gender Chinese population in California from the era before immigration was controlled, so although there was also an epidemic of lonely Chinese men, it wasn't as extreme as with the Filipino guys, since there were at least some mates available.

Unless it's some heartless judge she could probably get excused from jury duty.

But yeah, that does suck if it happens because I think jurors are paid minimum wage right?
