Census Bureau figures disclosed that the number of foreign-born residents in the United States, legal and illegal, reached 40 million last year, the highest in American history. Fourteen million immigrants came to America between 2000-2010. The Bureau reports that, of the 40 million total foreign-born residents, 10-12 million are likely illegal.

America’s immigrant population has doubled since 1990 and tripled since 1980. Some states experienced more than 75 percent increase in immigrant population:

• Alabama (92 percent)
• South Carolina (88 percent)
• Tennessee (82 percent)
• Arkansas (79 percent)
• Kentucky (75 percent)

The immigrant population in the country grew 28 percent from 2000-2010. The current share of immigrants when compared to the total U.S. population is 12.9 percent. We have had a larger share of immigrant population in the early 1900s but the U.S. population was much smaller then.

California (27 percent), Texas, Florida (19 percent), New York (22 percent), Nevada (18.8 percent), and New Jersey (21 percent) have the highest percentages of foreign-born residents.

Countries in Latin America represented 58 percent of the growth in immigrant population from 2000-2010. Mexico brought us nearly 12 million immigrants, followed by China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Philippines, Vietnam, and El Salvador. (Newsmax)

The federal government is bending over backwards to accommodate the estimated 12 million illegal aliens through back door amnesty. Since Congress has not acted to write amnesty legislation, a stealth amnesty began during the week of November 17, 2011 with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reviewing all deportation cases.
