Global humanitarian reasons for current U.S. immigration are tested in this updated version of Roy Beck's colorful presentation of data from the World Bank and U.S. Census Bureau. The 1996 version has been one of the most viewed policy presentations on the internet.

When will this demo be scheduled for viewing in the entire Senate? When will it be scheduled for our President and VP as a special showing?
We have a president who only cares about HIS agenda. He will not watch this little film, no matter how much logic it contains, because it does not further his agenda.We have "leaders" who do not lead.
Immigration cannot help the rest of the world. Immigration should be geared to help the US, we should be bringing in the best educated and brightest to help get the US back into the upper ranks of the developed world.
Exactly. Thank you. I have a German friend, college educated, who gave up trying to emmigrate to the US, after 15 years of trying. Now she runs a very successful web design business. Not that we have a shortage of web designers, but she would have been an upstanding, contributing member of our society.
all foreign students must go back to their nation after getting an education in the USA and teach their people how to make a living
The good sense message that this video sends is not part of the way that Washington views things. In Washington it's all about power.
Roy, GREAT presentation, brilliant.
So sad our elected officials have as their goals deceit, corruption, power, and greed at our expense. VOTE...
How do you get people to listen? when you talk about Illegals people think you are racist or heartless. I am angry at closed minded people
Since illegal people, plus annual legal immigration (that should be put on hold) is a large contributor to our economic problems, it stands to reason that we wouldn't be in such a predicament if this immigration problem were brought under control. I wish Roy could have a sit-down, lengthy talk with those in Washington (and show them the video). Roy seems to be the only one with any sense.
The US is broke even though it is a "rich" country. It takes money from its own people by taxing their earnings and then sends their money to other countries whenever their is a disaster, to gain their favor, and for whatever reason it wants. The people don't decide this, but the Federal government does. Even though it does not have the money to help its own people, it continues to send its own people's money to other countries every time it wants to. Yet, it is broke and does not help its own people that are poor, old, uneducated, homeless, disabled, and down and out.
You people don't get it. They don't care about helping these people. What they care about is importing democratic voters. If amnesty passes and enough illegals are brought in, who then all get hooked on those nice handouts and entitlement programs, who do you think they are going to vote for? A republican would never get elected president again. That's their plan.
The Democrats do not care about the undeniable facts of this presentation. Their only concern is to add millions of welfare users to the voting populace. Vote for the most conservative candidate possible this November or you'll see your neighborhoods, states, and country overwhelmed by Third Worlders who do NOT share our political values.
This was outstanding information. We dont see obama or bill clinton doing any thing like this to educate americans so they can really help nations in need! WAIT TILL THIS FALL!
We cannot continue to take in the whole third-world without sinking the U.S.A. lifeboat with all of us in it. To those who think everyone is entitled to our tax money: Go support an impoverished family yourself by feeding, clothing, educating, and where applicable, incarcerating them on your own dime. Quit volunteering our tax money and our children's futures to your "politically correct" cause. The U.S. is in a downward spiral that won't stop until we're all at the bottom.
