Humane and Pro-Growth: A Reason Guide to Immigration Reform

by Shikha Dalmia (Editor)

Overview

Why does our immigration system fail anyone who uses it? In this ebook, you can read 50 of the best articles on the subject.
 
We are on the cusp of immigration reform — which, if history is any guide, comes along only once every few decades. We have a choice between raising the barricades further and ejecting people already here or moving toward a more open system that allows people to move about freely. 
 
This collection from Reason features the work of journalists, policy experts, and academics. It advances an informed discussion about realistic and workable reforms appropriate to America’s self-understanding as a Land of Immigrants — and to help, at long last, to put these reforms over the finish line.
