Reforming U.S. Immigration Policy: Open New Pathways to Integration
The Brookings Institution, Opportunity 08 Series, December 14, 2007, online edition, 15p
"In the face of polarized public opinion and an unresolved congressional debate on the issue of illegal immigration, reforming U.S. immigration policy will be high on the 2008 Presidential campaign agenda. Current federal policy has frustrated state and local officials and inspired some of them to craft their own laws. Not all of the new policies are anti-immigrant; however, many of the most restrictive measures are found in areas with little or no recent experience of immigration." Audrey Singer is a demographer and Immigration Fellow at Brookings.
