ImmigrationIn this series of Briefing Papers, Ray Marshall analyzes the failure of past efforts at immigration reform and offers a comprehensive mix of policies that could serve the best interests of the United States and other countries, especially Mexico. Ron Hira argues that the vast expansion of the H-1B program passed by the U.S. Senate last year will, if signed into law, lead to more offshore outsourcing of jobs, displacement of American technology workers, decreased wages and job opportunities for those same workers, and the discouragement of young people from entering science and engineering fields.
