Illegal Immigration Has Increased
A new study says more immigrants are entering the country illegally than legally. The Pew Hispanic Center says immigration is increasing as the American economy improves. The report says last year, 562-thousand people entered the country illegally while 455-thousand entered legally. The chairman of the Senate's Immigration, Border Security and Citizenship Subcommittee says the report's an indicator that the immigration system is broken. Texas Republican John Cornyn says comprehensive reform is needed. The Pew Hispanic Center is a nonpartisan research organization supported by the Pew Charitable Trusts.
