"Republicans and Democrats alike seem to have decided that immigration is how we avoid competition."
Pamela Denise Long, a contributor for Newsweek, wrote an op-ed asserting that Democrats and Republicans continually fail the American worker by favoring foreign workers rather than committing to the success of our country's own talent pipeline:
"[The National Defense Act] is the third major piece of legislation to have an amendment protecting or expanding immigration in it, following the example of the COMPETES Act and Build Back Better. This third significant immigration proposal within the first two years of President Joe Biden's rule joins the nonexistent border enforcement that has accompanied this president's rule, signaling in no uncertain terms that the United States is a borderless nation.
...Legislators are waging an immigration charm offensive that will end in chaos for the descendants of slaves, working class Americans and U.S.-born STEM professionals. I'm deeply concerned that, for fear of being called xenophobic, my fellow Americans will remain silent until the damage is obvious but irreparable."
"Why don't our dreams matter?" Long asks. They do, and with one click of the button below, you can send a message to the elected officials that need to be reminded that more of the same schemes to increase immigration will produce more of the same results.
The American Dream is comatose for far too many who have a claim to it.
