United States Immigration: Determining Issues & Policy Immigration is the largest component of U.S. population growth and in the near future, will become the sole source of U.S. population growth. The data and graph in the section on U.S. population growth illustrates this fact. Immigration is also a considerable growth factor in Canada and in Australia. The issues surrounding immigration in those nations are, in the main, not different from those in the U.S. Thus, whatever the consequences of population growth to a sustainable society, a policy of sustainability must address immigration issues. In addition to the growth issues, immigration can be the addition of foreign groups different from the make-up of the current nation and may impact domestic citizens in a variety of ways. In that regard, additional sets of issues are raised. The issues surrounding growth are found throughout this Website, including this section. This section also includes issues unique to immigration. |
