From the Paper:

"The decision about whether to tighten or loosen restrictions on immigration should be based on economics. The key issue is the extent of immigrant contribution to the economy. In the past, U.S. policy on immigration has often been inconsistent and contradictory. Whereas, many Americans recognize the benefits of immigration, an increasing number do not. Consequently, immigration has been blamed for many of this country's ills ranging from the increased burden on social services to decreased employment opportunities for native-born Americans. As one social scientist puts it, "The conflicting views and attitudes about immigration explain America's inability to devise and execute a coherent immigration policy" (Reimers, 1985, p. 252). It is time for the United States to set forth clear policies regarding this hotly debated issue."
