Deportation Costs Could Skyrocket Local Budgets | San Antonio News
Description

As San Antonio grapples with budget deficits, the financial toll hits hard, while local businesses suffer from shrinking workforces and rising costs as workers fear showing up. Community leaders urge a smarter approach: prioritize enforcement against criminals, not families or essential workers who’ve built communities for years. The debate now must balance border security with economic stability and human dignity.
