Useful Immigration Quotes Looking for a useful immigration quote? Look in FAIR’s Quotes Library. New entries posted today are the following from U. Cal-Davis agricultural economist Dr. Philip Martin excerpted from the transcript of a March 25 Q&A session sponsored by the Population Reference Bureau. (On U.S. immigration policy) “The U.S. accepts about 3,500 legal immigrants a day, or 1.3 million a year, more than the rest of the world combined. Most Americans want immigration reduced.” ... (On deterring illegal immigration) “Most people agree that a key to reducing unauthorized migration is closing the labor market door to illegal workers. Northern European countries such as Sweden do this much better than the U.S., as do Singapore, Japan, and many other industrial countries.” ... (On immigrants’ impact on population growth) “Immigrants have a higher fertility rate than the U.S.-born population and they are relatively young, in the child-bearing years, so the percentage of births to foreign-born women is higher than their share of US residents. About 24 percent of the 4.1 million U.S. births in 2004 were to immigrant women, and 63 percent of births to Hispanic mothers were women born outside the U.S.” |
