Border & Immigration

Updated: May 12



In recent years, millions have crossed the U.S. border, placing extraordinary pressure on social, economic, and public safety systems. Communities have reported rising crime, overwhelmed social services, and small businesses struggling under increased competition. These conditions have sparked concern among taxpayers and residents who feel the strain on infrastructure and public resources.

Root Causes and Historical Policy

The escalation is due to policies of prior administrations, which it created a foundation for instability. These approaches are criticized for being ineffective or permissive, enabling the current volume and nature of immigration.

Consequences for the American Workforce

One key issue raised is the effect of increased immigration on the domestic labor market. The influx has reportedly intensified competition for jobs, which disproportionately affects American workers, especially in low-income and vulnerable sectors.

Federal Response and Reforms

To combat the crisis, the current administration has implemented enhanced border security, restructured deportation procedures, and initiated targeted enforcement strategies. These steps aim to restore order, reduce illegal entry, and protect public safety while still preserving legal pathways for immigration.

The Role of the New Majority Foundation

The New Majority Foundation is actively advocating for responsible immigration reform. Their mission includes public education, policy advocacy, and support for legislative efforts that seek to balance compassion with national security and economic sustainability.

Final Thoughts

Immigration remains a defining issue in the U.S. political and social landscape. While solutions require nuance, transparency, and bipartisan commitment, addressing the current challenges starts with acknowledging their complexity and acting with both urgency and empathy. Donate to the New Majority today and help us achieve these goals.
