The American Enterprise Institute and the Partnership for a New American Economy released a report analyzing the impact of immigration on the American economy. The nationwide study, based on a multi-year statistical analysis, offers new evidence that immigrants create jobs for American workers, and that immigrants with specific skill types don’t compete with native workers, but complement them and improve their employment outlook.
