US Immigration Policy since 9/11: Understanding the Stalemate over Comprehensive Immigration Reform

In a new Migration Policy Institute report, US Immigration Policy since 9/11: Understanding the Stalemate over Comprehensive Immigration Reform, Marc Rosenblum examines the altered political landscape that emerged after 9/11, detailing the legislative actions that resulted in significant new enforcement mandates and the failed efforts to enact comprehensive immigration reform.  The report reviews the history of US immigration legislation over the last decade and describes the challenges and opportunities ahead, which are tied in large measure to economic realities, as well as the regional context of US border security and economic integration.
