Pat Buchanan: Why No Discussion of Immigration at Jobs Summit?
Pat Buchanan says the best option for a job stimulus - an immigration moratorium - wasn't discussed at President Obama's job summit. "We have been losing jobs every month for two years. Why, then, are we still bringing immigrants into the United States at a rate of 125,000 a month to take jobs from fellow Americans and compete with our unemployed for the jobs that open up?"
"A steady flow of new immigrants is providing a late-decade population boost to major metropolitan areas such as Chicago, Miami, New York and Los Angeles, whose states are seeking to stem declines before the 2010 census," the AP says. "An analysis by the Brookings Institution think tank finds immigration is buoying many of the nation's larger cities. New York and Los Angeles picked up 1.1 million and 815,000 immigrants since 2000, respectively, and together account for one-fourth of the foreign-born arrivals."
"The Obama administration has pledged to pursue immigration legislation early in 2010. The administration's renewed commitment to action was teed up in a recent speech by Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, who declared victory on securing our Southern border," notes James R. Edwards at HumanEvents.com
