Maybe this would force the Mexican government to do more to improve their economy. DP
Channel 10, KWTX
KWTX.com : A proposal in the U-S Congress to legalize millions of undocumented immigrants in the U.s. could hurt Mexico's economy.
So say some Mexican economists, who say the legislation could slash the amount of money the immigrants send home to Mexico.
They argue that Mexicans with permission to work in the United States will want to bring their families north to live with them.
That would eliminate the main reason they send money home.
That would hurt Mexican businesses that have come to depend on the money sent down from the United States.
Be sure to read the rest of this story! This is only a small part of it.
This country was built by immigrants, it will continue to attract and need immigrants. Some people think there are enough people here now -- people have been saying this since the 1700s and it still is not true. They are needed to make up for our aging population and low birthrate. Immigrants often are entrepreneurs, creating jobs. We must help them become Americans and not just people who live here and think of themselves as visitors. When immigrants succeed here, the whole country benefits.
