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.'
