The U.S. has traditionally
defined itself as a land of opportunity, a refuge from persecution,
and a nation of immigrants. Today more people than ever are trying
to enter this country. While most Americans believe that,
historically, immigration has strengthened the U.S., many people now
question whether immigration is good for America. It is time, once
again, to change our immigration policies. This issue guide explores
how we as a nation might change our immigration policies.
