Immigration: Legal and Ilegal

The controversies over both legal and illegal immigration over the last 10 years make it a ripe topic for discussion. In this talk, Dr. David Henderson will explore the various arguments for and against both kinds of immigration and will evaluate the effects of past immigration. He will also evaluate the main arguments against it and will consider “keyhole” solutions that address the potential problems while providing gains to both Americans and immigrants.

He was previously a senior economist with President Reagan’s Council of Economic Advisers.
