Illegal Immigration
Illegal Immigration Illegal Immigration and the Economy Illegal immigration has become one of the key political issues of the 1990s, especially in Border States such as California. The Bureau of the Census estimates that there are now four million illegal aliens living in the United States and that about 300,000 more settle permanently each year. Four million illegal immigrants is undeniably a large number of people, but it is far below the "invading army" of 8 million 10 million aliens regularly reported in the media and by anti-immigrant lobbyists. Illegal aliens constitute only about 1.5 percent of the 260 million people living in the United States. Myopic and xenophobic Americans were (and are) threatened by what they perceive as waves of "foreigners" invading the U.S. shores and taking jobs away from hardworking "real" Americans. The fact of the matter is that is simply not the case. In the 1980s concern about the surge of illegal aliens into the U.S. has led Congress to pass legislation aimed at curtailing illegal immigration. The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 allows most illegal aliens who have resided in the U.S. continuously since January 1, 1982, to apply for legal status. In addition, the law prohibits illegal, immigration, immigrants, aliens, states, americans, united, million, economic, american, economy, california, should, people, living, legal, law, far, about, year, simple, recent, policy, one, newcomers, nafta, matter, free, federal, fact, each, country, congress, both, benefits, below
