Illegal immigration is far outpacing green cards since the border system collapsed two years ago. The E-Verify bill, H.R. 2, would get us back to a more credible system, but is that something our elected officials want?

Changing the technologies by which we consume is unlikely to reduce overall impact as long as we continue to increase the number of consumers. The United States has one of the highest per capita consumption rates in the world. Population growth here has a greater impact than in other countries. Unsustainably-high levels of legal and illegal immigration undercut any good-faith effort to reduce overall consumption and emissions.

Rocky Mountain High, written about the natural beauty of his beloved adopted state, is one of John Denver's most recognizable songs. A staunch conservationist during his life, one wonders what Denver would have to say today about rapidly disappearing open space in Colorado.

National security involves many things, including domestic food security. That is becoming increasingly more difficult as immigration policy is driven by the premise that the United States needs to add as many people as possible as quickly as possible.

With strong public commitment and political support for immigration reduction, aggregate water consumption could be reduced even more, allowing still more water to remain where it belongs — in natural streams, rivers, and lakes — where it furnishes ecological benefits to habitat, wildlife, and society.

Water is quickly being depleted by a growing U.S. population. This is placing an increased demand on rivers, reservoirs, and groundwater for drinking water, farming, and industrial production. This precious resource deserves our protection, stewardship, and care. Yet, our government officials have turned a blind eye to the crucial component of doing so, which is to cut immigration to the U.S.

NumbersUSA Education & Research Foundation provides a civil forum for Americans of all political and ethnic backgrounds to focus on a single issue, the numerical level of U.S. immigration. We educate opinion leaders, policymakers and the public on immigration legislation, policies and their consequences. We favor reductions in immigration numbers toward traditional levels that would allow present and future generations of Americans to enjoy a stabilizing U.S. population and a high degree of individual liberty, mobility, environmental quality, worker fairness and fiscal responsibility.

Those who need to refer to NumbersUSA with a short, descriptive modifier should call it an “immigration-reduction organization.”
