7 TRUTHS approximately IMMIGRATION1. A record high of 75 percent of Americans now say immigration
is a “kindly thing” for the country. 2. America needs more immigrants,not fewer, because our
population is rapidly aging. 3. Historically, or recent immigrants have contributed more to society
in taxes than they have taken from society in terms of public assistance. 4. Most immigrants don’t take jobs away from native-born
Americans. To the opposite,their spending creates more jobs. 5. Trump’s claim that undocumented immigrants generate more
crime is dead wrong. Both legal and undocumented immigrants are significantly
less likely to commit crimes than people born in the United States. 6. Violent crime rates in America are actually at historical
lows, with the murder rate back to its level from the early 1960s. 7. Illegal border crossings have been declining since 2014 –
long before Trump’s “crackdown.” There is no “surge” in illegal immigration. Please
spread the truth.
