Which state has very little if almost no illegals ?

Sadly Sky, there's a doubt.

Quote:Claims About Missouri’s Approach to Illegal Immigration-Truth!

'Summary of eRumor:
A viral email alleges that Missouri doesn’t have problems with illegal immigration because state lawmakers
have passed a number of bills aimed at cracking down on illegal immigrants. People are asking if Missouri
is the smartest state in the nation.
 
The Truth:
This eRumor is true and was taken from an editorial written by Republican State Rep. Nita Jane Ayres. It was
published by the Ozarks Sentinel on May 13, 2009. The allegation that this state has no undocumented immigrants
is fiction.

The Missouri General Assembly placed a constitutional referendum on the ballot in 2007 that designated English
as the state’s primary language. The state legislature also got a measure signed into law in 2008 that required
Missouri Highway State Patrol officers to check the immigration status of people who were pulled over.

It’s also true that lawmakers in Missouri have made illegal immigrants ineligible for state-sponsored health care
and food stamp programs, according to Legal Services of Missouri. Illegal immigrants are also ineligible for
financial aid in Missouri.

The eRumor’s claim that there are no illegal immigrants in Missouri is false, but the state does have one of the
lowest populations of illegal immigrants in the country.
According to 2010 U.S. Census data, there were about 55,000 illegal immigrants in Missouri, which was less
than 1 percent of the state’s population...'

But... it's not too-wrong!
