Immigrant Population Hits Record 46.2 Million in November 2021 Census Bureau data: foreign-born population declined through mid-2020, then rebounded dramatically ([link removed])
By Steven A. Camarota and Karen Zeigler
CIS Report, December 20, 2021

Excerpt: An analysis of the Census Bureau’s monthly Current Population Survey (CPS) from November 2021 shows the total immigrant population (legal and illegal) in the U.S. hit 46.2 million, the highest number ever recorded in American history. Immigrants are also referred to by the government as the “foreign-born”. The overall immigrant population fell through the middle of 2020 and then rose dramatically after Biden’s victory. There is a lot of variation from month to month in the CPS, so any change should be interpreted in light of this variability. The growth and size of the immigrant population in the CPS are important because, unlike arrival figures for legal immigrants or border apprehensions, the CPS measures the total number of foreign-born people living in the country, which is what ultimately determines immigration’s impact on American society.

By Mark Krikorian
National Review, December 15, 2021
Excerpt: The Senate parliamentarian for the third time has ruled against inclusion of an amnesty for illegal aliens in the Build Back Better reconciliation bill. Two questions remain: Can Democrats conjure up yet another gimmick to try to sneak into the bill work permits and Social Security numbers to illegal aliens? And what about the other immigration provisions in the bill?

The Federalist, December 16, 2021
Excerpt: Here’s the problem: with the greater choice and empowerment that IOM money can buy, aspiring migrants are able to remain within striking distance of the southern border to choose the time of their inevitable illegal border crossings. No one should wonder why border hawks hate this system and open borders advocates love it.

Mass Migration Through Panama’s Darien Gap Destroying an Indigenous Tribe – and Human Rights Organizations Don’t Care ([link removed])
By Todd Bensman
The leader of the Embera Tribe left his jungle homeland in Panama’s Darien Gap and came to the nation’s capital last week with an SOS message to the American people: a record-setting mass migration through his reservation, spurred by President Joe Biden as soon as he entered office this year, is destroying the tribe’s traditional ways of life at a pace beyond living memory and corrupting its people to an entirely unacknowledged extent.

The Latest Fifth Circuit ‘Remain in Mexico’ Decision Is a Doozy ([link removed])
By Andrew R. Arthur
The president should learn from this matter, however, and start applying the INA as written, and follow Congress’s mandates therein. If the administration’s not chastened by this matter, it should be.
H-1B Is Designed to Displace American Workers ([link removed])
By John Miano
The H-1B statute is lobbyist-written and deliberately deceptive. It relies on what might be called the-Lord-giveth-and-the-Lord-taketh-away system of statute drafting, with apparent protections neutered by other provisions of the law. The Biden administration's Build Back Better bill does nothing to fix that.
