The folks at NumbersUSA have to recongnize reality, which is;
1) We are not going to send home 11 million people, it is fiscally irresponsible and logistically impossible 2) One study found that for every 1,000 immigrants (legal) who moved into a U.S. country, 40 jobs were saved or created, home values increased slightly, and immigrants are twice as likely to start a business than native born citizens 3) Our current immigration system is broken not because LEGAL immigrants only come here to take jobs away from Americans, but because the vast majority of legal immigrants come here to unite with family, not for economic purposes 4) If we saw sustained economic growth where we are creating millions of full-time jobs, there will be plenty of jobs for both native born Americans AND legal immigrants 5) Not having a temporary worker program would negatively affect agriculture, some aspects of the service industry, and seasonal businesses
I urge my fellow conservatives to back a pathway to legal status, a temporary worker program, and enforcement of our immigration laws not through deportations, but through employment verification. Additionally, I urge my fellow conservatives to support having the majority of legal immigration be about economic-driven immigrants, not family unification.
