UCLA Study Finds Legalization Good for the Economy

A new report  by UCLA  Professor Raul Hinojosa-Ojeda concluded that legalization, along with a program that allows for future immigration based on the labor market, would create jobs, increase wages and generate more tax revenue. The report estimates that comprehensive immigration reform would add $1.5 trillion to the U.S. gross domestic product over 10 years.
