Christian Daily: Immigration reform 2016 news update: Majority of Americans want undocumented immigrants to stay in the US
media mention“The immigrants without legal permission to stay in the country, which are roughly about 11 million, are significantly helping the U.S. economy. A study by The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy proves that “undocumented immigrants contribute significantly to state and local taxes, collectively paying an estimated $11.64 billion a year.”
With reference to the presidential candidates’ standpoint on this issue, The Daily Caller notes that Hilary Clinton, John Kasich, and Bernie Sanders are all in favor of allowing the undocumented immigrants to stay in the United States and be legalized. Donald Trump and Ted Cruz — whose platform prioritizes helping the American workers over skilled immigrants — are firmly against this.”
