Report: Immigrant work force worth billions

The Tucson Citizen

If all noncitizen workers were removed from Arizona's workforce, economic output would drop annually by at least $29 billion, according to a University of Arizona study released Wednesday.

The report also found that Arizona's legal and illegal immigrants generated nearly $44 billion in output.
