Report: Immigration Bill Would Add Nearly 14,000 Jobs Per District [Lies, lies and more lies]
ABC News ^ | Aug 20, 2013 | By JORDAN FABIAN

The Senate’s immigration bill would add nearly 14,000 new jobs on average in each congressional district over the next decade, according to a new report.

The new analysis is from the center-right American Action Network (AAN), which backs an overhaul of the nation’s immigration laws. It’s being distributed to lawmakers’ offices as pro-reform groups seek to convince GOP congressmen to vote for immigration reform proposals this fall.

District-by-district data is available through this web tool. No district would see fewer than 7,000 jobs created by 2023, and an average of 13,992 new jobs would be created in each. The figures were compiled using data from a Regional Economic Models, Inc. (REMI) study of economic data and new worker visas and a Congressional Budget Office report on the impact of the Senate bill.

The figures could provide more cover for Republican House members who are considering backing reform. It could allow them to explain their position to skeptical constituents during August recess, when immigration has been a hot topic at town hall meetings.

Pro-reform conservatives have long framed immigration reform as a job-creation effort, dovetailing with the GOP message on jobs and the goals of party leaders to broaden that message to Latino voters.

And I forgot to say, just think how many jobs we could create by letting a billion “immigrants” in from Africa, the middle east, South America, etc.

3.3 million new jobs for 20 million illegals? That is an 83% unemployment rate

RE””The Senate’s immigration bill would add nearly 14,000 new jobs on average in each congressional district over the next decade.”
.......while adding 35,000 job SEEKERS in each congressional district.”

Now that we found out that welfare pays better than many jobs pay, its obvious that we need these new ‘immigrants’ to do these jobs that Americans ‘wont do’ because get paid better to stay home and watch cable.

Until they learn of the scam and join the others. Drat, then we need another immigration bill.

Now I see the light.

Demand the House & Senate enforce the current laws, or we throw them in jail, and take their pensions.

Congress is not given authority to enforce laws, to just pass them.
