 Until Recently discussions on Immigration were limited to History Class.  The last 30 years have seen Federal Immigration Legislation changes.  Mass Immigration continues to this day and has many realizing the effects of Immigration on their lives.

 Legal Immigration has averaged 1,000,000 a year in the 1990’s  (all time record)  Statistics for 2000  Just under 850,000 due to INS processing delays.

 Most legal immigration is classified into 6 categories. 1. Immediate Relatives 2. Family-Based 3. Employment-Based 4. Refugees 5. Those seeking Asylum 6. Lottery Admissions

 Size of Illegal Alien Population Census Bureau estimates: 8.7 million illegal aliens reside in the United States  Entering Illegally: Borders  Staying Illegally: example—entering as tourists and stay past the date of temporary Visa’s

Population Growth According to the US Census Bureau, Immigration is directly responsible for over 60 percent of population growth. Sustainable Development: The New American Dream March, 1996 reports that ¾ of all Americans feel that overpopulation is a serious threat to their children in the next 25 years

 Urban Sprawl  An estimated 1,174 acres are developed every week due to immigrant population growth.  Additional public infrastructure costs come to 1.37 BILLION per year. Per Capita Costs of Population Growth to Local Communities, Carrying Capacity Network

 An estimated 1,880,000 American workers are displaced from their jobs every year by immigration.  The cost for providing welfare and assistance to these Americans is over 15 Billion a year.  The Net Costs of Immigration, Donald Huddle, Rice University, 1996.

 According to The Bureau of Labor Statistics wage depression is attributable to job competition from Immigrants.  Too much immigration keeps wages low. →Wage increases in low-immigration cities have been 48% higher than in high immigration cities. Linked Migration Systems: Immigration and Internal Labor Flows in the United States, Economic Geography

 Ohio University economist Lowell Gallaway was cited in USA Today  “Poor English skills among foreign-born residents cost more than $175 billion a year in lost productivity, wages, tax revenues and unemployment compensation.”

 43% of immigrants under 65 have no health insurance; the cost of their healthcare is passed on to the public: The Annual bill to taxpayers for Immigrant Medicaid is $14 billion and for Medicare 6.1 billion. Federation for American Immigration Reform

 One fourth of the Federal Prison population is foreign-born.  The INS must deport over 30,000 criminal aliens every year. INS Statistics Division

 A topic that has been visited often by political pundits lately has been Immigration Reform.  It seems as though everyone has the solution to the problems with Immigration, but the general consensus is 1. Reduce Chain Migration 2. Improve Interior Enforcement 3. Restructure the INS

 Statistical information from INS  Provides a monthly world-wide migration news  Offers an in depth study on immigration, population, national unity and balance of individual rights and civic responsibilities
