Then, using the References along with resources from your own research, write a 1-2 page response to the questions that follow.

Immigrants pay taxes, help to support the US social security system, and contribute to American society.Opponents of immigration include individuals that want to ban or significantly reduce all immigration, and those that simply want more stringent efforts to end illegal immigration. Opponents argue that current immigration policies and border patrol methods are too lenient and allow terrorists to infiltrate into the US.Two short articles identified below have very different views on the impacts of illegal immigration on state economies. Use these references along with resources from your own research to help answer the questions that follow.Questions How do the views presented in the articles differ? How does illegal immigration both hurt and help state economies? Do you feel that the author\’s of these two articles are ignoring each others side, or is it possible that the Illinois economy is simply better equipped to absorb illegal immigration?
