More About: ImmigrationImmigration amnesty bill to bring in at least 33 million people in one decade
If the S744 amnesty bill passes, we can expect 33 million added
immigrants within 10 years. That’s for
starters. When you add their progeny,
chain migration and our own population momentum of one million annually, we
face the most profound explosion of humanity within our borders ever in the
history of humanity.
It’s the equivalent of adding one additional New York City, Los Angeles,
Houston, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Antonio, San Diego, Dallas, San Jose,
Jacksonville, Indianapolis, Austin, San Francisco, Columbus, Fort Worth,
Charlotte, Detroit, El Paso, Memphis and Boston. If the bill passed, it would be the same as
adding ALL of the Top 20 cities in the United States in a short 10
years. That of course does not include
additional population growth driven by birth rates.
“The pending Senate immigration
bill would bring a minimum of 33
million people into the country during its first decade of operation,”
said Roy Beck, director of www.numbersusa.com. “By 2024, the inflow would include an
estimated 9.2 million illegal immigrants, plus 2.5 million illegals who arrived
as children — dubbed ‘Dreamers’ — plus roughly 3.4 million company-sponsored
employees with university degrees, said the unreleased analysis.
“The majority of the inflow, or
roughly 17 million people, would consist of family members of illegals, recent
immigrants and of company-sponsored workers.
The estimate is likely the first of several that will be produced by
advocates as the Senate grapples with the immigration bill developed by the
“Gang of Eight” senators.
“The 844-page bill was released
last week, and was scheduled for debate and amendment in the Senate’s judiciary
committee starting April 25. However, the amendment process was held up for a
week by Republican Senators. Advocates for the bill have yet to release any
estimates of the future inflow.”
“Nobody has a number that is
based on the bill right now that’s accurate,” Lynn Tramonte, deputy director of
the pro-immigration America’s
Voice Education Fund, told the Christian Science Monitor in an April 25 article.
“It’ll take a bit more [analysis] to get a specific number about how things
will change.”
“An April 20-22 Fox News poll of
1,009 registered voters showed that 55 percent of respondents want a reduction
in the current number of legal immigrants,” said Beck. “Currently, the country
accepts 1 million immigrants and 700,000 temporary company-sponsored workers
each year. The bill would boost that to roughly 3 million immigrants and 1
million company-sponsored workers per year. Forty-five percent of non-whites,
53 percent of independents and 62 percent of people without college degrees,
favor a reduction in legal immigrants. Only 18 percent of Republicans and 29
percent of independents favor an increase in legal immigration, the Fox poll
reported.”
The current population of the
United States is 316 million. That estimate includes roughly 40 million
immigrants, both legal and illegal. Opponents of the immigration bill are
already highlighting the potentially large inflow.
“I believe the interest that
needs to be protected is the national interest of the United States, and that
includes existing workers today, workers whose wages have been pulled down,
without doubt, by a large flow of… low-wage labor into the country,” Alabama
Republican Sen. Jeff Sessions said during one of three hearings on the pending
bill. “This bill would continue that in a way that’s very disturbing to me.”
Beck said, “Estimates of a 33 million inflow are
conservative … [because they do] not attempt to project increases in these
categories that are certain to occur in future years,” once many of the new
immigrants seek green cards for their overseas relatives. Also, some categories of immigrants are
uncapped, and the analysis “does not attempt to project increases in these
[family unification] categories that are certain to occur in future years.
“The pending bill allows illegal immigrants
to bring their overseas spouses and children into the country. If that provision is implemented, it could
more than double the [illegal immigrant inflow] number shown in the chart,
bringing the total inflow to 40 million by 2024.”
The analysis shows an inflow of
roughly 3.4 million university trained immigrants. That estimate does not
include graduates who get green cards under the family unification route, or
the uncapped inflow of doctors and PhD-carrying scientists. Roughly 1.8 million
Americans graduate from college each year, including 300,000 with degrees in
science and engineering.
Population-growth forecasts will also contribute to the emerging fight
over the bill’s cost, because the award of a green card — or the right to live
in the United States
— confers access to some government benefits.
“It is important to note here
that each of the individuals represented in this chart becomes eligible for
Obamacare on the day a green card is issued,” said Beck. “Most of those on the
chart will then have to wait five years before they become eligible for all US
welfare benefits … [but some] will actually become eligible for welfare
immediately upon being issued a green card,” said the report.
Enrollment in Obamacare is
expected to spike the cost of the immigration bill, partly because federal
subsidies are used to offset the annual Obamacare cost of $20,000 for a family
of four.
All
totaled, The Heritage Foundation estimate the total cost of this amnesty from a
low of $3 trillion to as high as $5 trillion.

33 million? Duh, since the U.S. per capita income is $42K, that means an increase in national income of $1.4 trillion, so I can hardly wait :) Where's this new metropolis going to be located? I want to buy land there now :)
Frosty is SICK :) Who is he kidding? He assumes that these 33 million will be MEXICANS, and he hates them and doesn't want them to live long or prosper on HIS side of the Brownsville Wall of Apartheid. He's a dinosaur.
All along we could have incorporated Mexico as 10 new U.S. states and allowed population to freely mix, revitalizing the economy and making the U.S. not only bigger, safer, and stronger, but happier, with sick white supremacists finally getting over their hangups and learning to party with all that great Mexican food.
It still must be done. Only I have a 7-step bipartisan plan to do it in a phased manner, making a weakness into a strength and embracing the future of all 400+ million Americans sharing the New World under the same 60-star flag.
