WASHINGTON, June 30 /U.S. Newswire/ -- While many advocates of high immigration argue that today's immigration is no different from the previous great wave a century ago, the data tell a different story.
A new analysis of birth records from the Center for Immigration Studies shows that immigrants (legal & illegal) accounted for a larger share of births in 2002 than in 1910, during the peak of the last great wave of immigration. The children born to immigrants are arguably the most important long- term legacy of immigration and are a key measure of its magnitude. The new report provides detailed information on births to immigrants for every state and many counties, including estimates for births to illegal aliens in particular.
The study, entitled "Births to Immigrants in America, 1970 to 2002," is embargoed until Thursday, July 7, at 10 a.m. EDT. Advance copies are available to the media. On the release date, the entire study will be available on line at http://www.cis.org
The Center will formally release the report at a press conference on Thursday, July 7, at 10 a.m. at the Center's Washington, D.C., office at 1522 K Street N.W.
Can you say 'anchor baby'?

"The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government,

So now they're worried about natural born citizens growing up American?

get that preganant mamasita over the border where there is GREAT medical care AND here's the bonus, that new illegal is (PRESTO) a U.S. citizen!!! entitled to ALL the welfare they can find! GREAT system eh?
Aren't you happy that American children are being replaced with Mexican children?
Americans should be having more children.
Well gee why don't you tell the CIS to team up with NOW, and promote abortion, that will probably make them and you happy.

I'm not overly concerned about births to legal immigrants...they fall under our jurisdiction within the meaning of the 14th Amendment.
It's the illegals that really frost my biscuits...
This is madness, and if the Republican party is not going to deal with this issue in 2006 they will lose my vote.

Pilot program funds mortgage loans for illegal immigrants (ILLEGAL ALIENS)
because of GWB's refusal to enforce the immigration laws and secure the borders, the country is overwhelmed with illegal aliens and no telling how many of those are terrorists.
Bush talking about that day at Ground Zero. "I remember a guy grabbing me by the arm ... he looked at me with bloodshot eyes and said, 'Don't let me down,'" Bush said, adding: "I will do whatever it takes."
unfortunately, Bush has not done "whatever it takes" and has let us all down...
Ah ha!!! Tom Cruise was right after all!!!
Will Congress close this loophole? The ACLU will yell bloody murder if they try it.

"The children born to immigrants are arguably the most important long- term legacy of immigration . . . ."
Thanks Presidente Jorge and our do-nothing Congress.
Bush didn't let us down all by himself.

Americans generally do not have more children than they can raise well. MEXICANS do.
