Immigrant bashers and the truth about jobs and welfare
An analysis challenges claims that immigrants steal jobs or rely on welfare. It cites Colorado labor needs, New York Times reporting, and Wall Street Journal research to show immigrants fill low‑status roles, rarely rely on public aid today, and that most speak English within years.
