Immigration is the drivingforce behind the population growth that is devastating our environment and the quality of our lives. Primarily because of immigration we are rushing at breakneck speed toward an environmental and economic disaster [emphasis included].
FAIR’s The Environmentalist’s Guide to a Sensible Immigration Policy evokes the threat of immigrant women’s reproduction in a section heading:“Immigration’s Invisible Multiplier: Offspring.”FAIR and other anti-immigrant organizations often refer to the danger of so-called “chain migration,” a.k.a. immigration through family reunification laws. FAIR warns that “a single immigrant who is admitted for needed job skills, or out of humanitarian concerns, or for some other reason, can become the link in an unbreakable chain of family migration.”FAIR and other groups are lobbying for laws that would restrict family reunification. Women would be the primary victims of such legislation, since the vast majority of women immigrants come through family-based immigration laws. Furthermore, such reforms would create unnecessary hardship by prolonging the separation of immigrant families.
