That’s translating to higher unemployment rates and downward wage pressure for all lower income Americans, especially African- Americans, Hispanic Americans and first-generation immigrants.
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) is a national, nonprofit, public-interest, membership organization of concerned citizens who share a common belief that our nation's immigration policies must be reformed to serve the national interest. FAIR seeks to improve border security, to stop illegal immigration, and to promote immigration levels consistent with the national interest—more traditional rates of about 300,000 a year. Learn More
