Wednesday, September 13, 2023

ALEXANDRIA. Va., Sept. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Negative Population Growth, Inc. (NPG) has released a new Forum paper titled "Immigration Reduction: Xenophobia and Racism? Or, Common Sense and Pragmatism in a Crowded Nation?" Writing on what she calls the current Great Tsunami of Immigration, long-time journalist Kathleene Parker writes about a U.S. immigration history that – when not "revised" by open-border advocates to their own version of things – shows a nation that saw immigration as something solely to serve the nation's interests, rather than as a social program to benefit the world. Parker says she is proud to stand with earlier immigration-reduction advocates, such as famous labor activist Cesar Chavez, Black, liberal Congresswoman Barbara Jordan (D.-Tx) and Coretta Scott King who, in the 1990s, helped stop a La Raza effort to make it legal to hire illegal border crossers. Parker, a long-time environmental activist in the American West, adds that she agrees strongly with the 11,000 climate scientists who warn that the current U.S. population explosion, being driven by historically unmatched levels of immigration, will nullify all efforts to address climate change.

Key Points: 
  • Va., Sept. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Negative Population Growth, Inc. (NPG) has released a new Forum paper titled "Immigration Reduction: Xenophobia and Racism?
  • Parker walks readers through the early years of immigration into the country, commenting on noteworthy policies and highlighting pertinent decades that perpetuated population growth nationwide.
  • Speaking on The 1965 Immigration Act, Parker notes that the quotas were removed, and family reunification was emphasized.
  • What immigration, most of it illegal, will be post-Title 42, only time (and the next census) will determine, but we're experiencing what I call the 'Great Tsunami of Immigration.'

Key Points:

  • According to Customs and Border Protection, border crossings from Mexico to the United States have recently fallen from 10,000 a day to approximately 3,500 a day.

Mexico’s role

    • Alex Miller, director of the advocacy group Immigration Justice Campaign, called the changes “a stark reversal of the administration’s stated commitment to restoring access to asylum”.
    • Former Democrat Representative for Texas 16th congressional district Beto O’Rourke tweeted that the ruling was “the right decision”.
    • Both immigration advocates and those calling for stricter guidelines have attacked the Biden administration’s immigration policy since the president took office.
    • Vice President Kamala Harris, who was tasked with finding a solution to the border crisis, has been the subject of much Republican criticism.
    • Whether the supreme court upholds the San Francisco ruling or not, the White House seems to be in a no-win position.

Immigration attitudes

    • Recent polls show that significantly more Americans that identified as Republicans (70%) felt that immigration was a major problem than Democrats (25%).
    • Inflation (65%), affordable healthcare (64%) and partisanship (61%) are thought by all parties as the top national problems and outweigh illegal immigration (47%).
    • The border crisis is unlikely to cost Biden the election, but it will remain a thorn in the administration’s side beyond 2024.

WASHINGTON, July 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today's ruling by Federal District Court Judge Jon Tigar effectively negates any impediments to foreign nationals seeking to abuse our nation's asylum laws, and will trigger an even more massive surge of people crossing our borders illegally, charges the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

  • The Circumvention of Lawful Pathways rule implemented by the Biden administration in May bars some migrants who enter the U.S. between ports of entry from seeking asylum.
  • Today's ruling essentially says that no matter how many people cross the border illegally, regardless of how many countries they may have transited along the way, it has no effect on the availability of asylum which must be available without restriction.
  • "If Judge Tigar's injunction of the Circumvention of Lawful Pathways rule goes into effect two weeks it will serve as an invitation for people to further abuse our asylum process," commented Dan Stein, president of FAIR.

Key Points:

  • But recent measures established by the Biden administration suggest that people will face more – not fewer – difficulties in obtaining asylum in the U.S. after the end of Title 42.
