      How would that be tracked as “spent by an undocumented immigrant”?

      As undocumented immigrants, they’d be unable to have bank accounts, so all of their payments would be in cash wouldn’t they?

        Believe it or not Mexican debit cards are accepted in the United States.

          So then the logical question follows: are we tracking sales tax spent by foreign debit cards and attributing those expenses to be from only undocumented immigrants?
