Description

America has always been a nation of immigrants, and throughout our history, immigrants from around the globe have kept our workforce vibrant, our businesses on the cutting edge, and helped to build the greatest economic engine in the world. However, Americaäó»s immigration system is broken and has not kept pace with the changing times. Too many employers game the system by hiring undocumented workers and there are 11 million people living and working in the shadow economy. This report outlines the key benefits to the U.S. economy of passing commonsense immigration reform, which: strengthens the overall economy and grows U.S. GDP; fosters innovation and encourages more job creation and job growth; increases the productivity of workers and adds new protections for them; and decreases budget deficits, balances out an aging population, and strengthens Social Security. Figures. This is a print on demand report.
