Proposed Workload Budget
Incarceration of Undocumented Felons

The CDCR expects to spend approximately $965.3 million in 2007-08 for the incarceration of undocumented persons. The state will receive $102.4 million in federal State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) funding for 2007-08. Undocumented persons are expected to comprise 11.2 percent of inmates in the state prison system. The CDCR's costs in 2008-09 are estimated to increase to $1 billion, an increase of 4.6 percent. For 2008-09, it is estimated that California will again receive approximately $102.4 million in federal SCAAP funding. At this level of funding, the state will be reimbursed for only 10.1 percent of the costs associated with the incarceration and related debt service associated with the undocumented felon population, with $906.6 million in costs in excess of the level of federal reimbursements.

During the current fiscal year, the Administration will continue to aggressively pursue all strategies designed to maximize federal funding for the incarceration of undocumented felons.
