“Enforcement Only” Could Worsen American Economic Woes: http://www.americansforimmigrationreform.com/

Undocumented workers help the American economy address work force shortages and fuel our economy. Should the government pursue an enforcement-only policy (workplace raids and deportation) without fixing the structural problems with our immigration system, it will worsen America’s economic problems. Enforcement only will result in:

• $1,757,000,000,000 (trillion) in annual lost spending
• $651,511,000,000 (billion) in annual lost output
• $8,100,000 (million) lost jobs

Our Mission:The Houston Coalition for Immigration Reform exists to facilitate collaboration between organizations and communities seeking to bring reform to a broken immigration system by building bridges between business interests, legal specialists, non-profit organizations and faith communities.
