Details
For several years, some Members of Congress have favored “comprehensive immigration reform” (CIR), a label that commonly refers to omnibus legislation that includes increased border security and immigration enforcement, expanded employment eligibility verification, revision of nonimmigrant visas and legal permanent immigration, and legalization for some unauthorized aliens residing in the country. This book provides a detailed discussion of major legislation related to each of these issues and provides estimates of the economic impact. (Imprint: Nova)
