Immigration: An Engine For Economic Growth

June 10, 2013 - June 11, 2013

#NAAimmigration, #11Million, #ImmigrationReform

NAA members, business leaders and advocates will raise our collective voice on the imperative for immigration reform and to deliver a resounding statement to the nation’s elected leadership on the value of immigration as an engine for economic prosperity. Participation in this program is by invitation.

As discussed at last year's inaugural NAA American Latino National Summit, we have a vested interest in ensuring full participation of all Latinos in our nation's economic, educational and civic system, while also dispelling the misinformation that so often clouds public and policy debates. As reported in our 2012 American Latino Agenda, full report HERE included:

There is no correlation between immigration and unemployment
Immigrants impact the growth of the nation's job market and economy
Immigrants are more likely than natives to start their own businesses generating an estimated $775 billion in revenue, $125 billion in payroll, and $100 billion in income as of 2011.

Thank yo for the post. " An Engine For Economic Growth" id still a good topic to discuss. But i always suggest everyone that your country growth will be optimized by your health care infrastructure. I am living in the USA. Here you can find out Health care data https://www.modatrust.com

If small businesses could benefit from this too in 2021 then I see your point. Economic growth comes from thousands of factors and this is definitely a major one even if you can prove that it has negative side effects. Local companies like https://www.bestchoiceroofingservices.com who supply roofing services might be something that comes to mind when we think of immigrant work forces but a lot of leading scientists, engineers, athletes and important people from every walk of life come to work and that’s great.

It’s not just countries in the Americas that grew from immigration. Have you guys heard of the Migration Period? Indeed, nearly every continent throughout history has thrived from immigration and history repeats itself. We need more scientists, we need more appliance repair mechanics like my friends from Ireland just got at https://www.werepairappliances.ca/appliance-repair-surrey-bc.html We need more positions being filled in America and Canada, and I loved what you had to say. Great policy!

Immigrants are way more likely to start their own business in America. People that live in this country have it pretty easy as compared to other countries and that tends to make to relax and not get out and do more than just go get a job. They are not as hungry as a person who has had zero opportunity in life. Travis – https://www.concretepumpingfresno.com/

Here are usually inefficiencies and possibilities in any financial system. A person needs to find and make the most them…Faster and cheaper ways to produce and market items and https://www.assignmenthelpdeal.co.uk services, as an example. The small commercial enterprise that develops the faster, less expensive, higher merchandise will force monetary increase. Huge enterprise is good at capturing economies of scale, that’s critical. However small enterprise is better at innovation, that’s critical.

Well it was a very nice concept or article on immigration. I never knew immigrants are capable of making the business in other places and many affects their mother land as per the survey on http://www.essayheaven.org/reviews/ blogs. Lets know what are present changes in current year.

I no longer know what to think, many are going to different sides of opinions by the mass, I prefer not to opine for not knowing the major cause. http://oproprionegocio.com/curso-de-manutencao-de-celular/

We should not relate the high unemployment with immigration ever. There is no equally relationship with Lucas Nogueira http://www.classaude.com.br/diabetes-controlada
