11-06-2006, 03:21 PM #2In May 2006, we hired Brodnitz to conduct Third Way's polling and to help us solve the impending immigration wedge. Our task was to devise a message to win over moderates while supporting progressive principles for immigration reform that included a path to citizenship. We sought to de-claw this issue and give guidance to progressive elected leaders and candidates who wanted to preserve their Hispanic base but feared alienating middle-class white voters in the process.
After analyzing our results, we came to believe that not only could this issue be neutralized, it could and should be won.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

About Immigration2006.org
Immigration reform gained a new level of visibility this year. Months ago, Democratic pollster Celinda Lake predicted that immigration - particularly a hard-line, enforcement-only approach to illegal immigration - would be the key wedge issue strategy of the 2006 mid-term elections, to drive conservative voters to the polls while making Democrats look weak on national security. She predicted it would be the centerpiece of the GOP's defense of its majority in the House, Senate, and other levels of government:
"Tough-sounding anti-immigration rhetoric will be to 2006 what gay marriage bashing was to 2004."
Immigration2006.org was created to track how these predictions are playing out in election races around the country. It is not intended to support the election or defeat of any candidate or party, but rather to track where the immigration issue is being used, the various policy positions being proposed, and an evaluation of how successful the hard-line strategy is this November.
Who we are
The coalition behind Immigration2006.org was formed by long-time Washington political and media advisors Christopher Dorval and Andrea LaRue. They draw on the expertise of political pollsters, commentators, and pundits who are familiar with how the immigration issue is playing out, how it has played out in the past, and what the implications are for the future, including the future of immigration policy.
Among the people who will be consulted and provide content are:
* Peter Brodnitz, Principal, Benenson Strategy Group, a nationally recognized strategic research and consulting firm.
* Cassandra Q. Butts, Senior Vice President for Domestic Policy, Center for American Progress, a nonpartisan research and educational institute.
* Celinda Lake, President, Lake Research Partners. Lake is one of the Democratic Party's leading political strategists.
* Simon B. Rosenberg, President and Founder of the New Democrat Network, a non-profit 501(c)(4) issue advocacy organization.

Americas Project
About the Project
The Americas Project at the Center for American Progress is focused on the United States' relationship with and place in the Americas. The United States is in the midst of dramatic changes that will profoundly affect its future and are manifest both in the rapid growth of its Latino population and the ever-increasing interconnections with its neighbors throughout the Americas. Through rigorous research and open collaboration, The Americas Project seeks to more fully explore and understand those changes, the relationships among them, and their implications for progressive policy abroad and at home. The America Project endeavors to formulate innovative policy recommendations to address those changing realities and, through active engagement of all forms of media, effectively communicate its proposals to a wide range of audiences.

Interview with Linda Jacobsen on The U.S. at 300 Million: Challenges and Prospects
11 October 2006, 10:00 AM EDT
Read more about Linda Jacobsen
Transcript
Dave W.:
Will building a 700 mile fence on the Texas border slow down the rate of population growth?
Linda Jacobsen:
No, not in the short term. Hispanics in the U.S.(especially Mexicans) have higher fertility rates than non-Hispanic whites. Even if no additional immigrants came across the border in the next few years, population would continue to grow in the U.S. because of this built-in momentum of higher fertility.
Brad Bowen:
How many of the 300 million are adults?
Linda Jacobsen:
Approximately 75% are ages 18 or older and 25% are children younger than 18.
Michelle:
Where will the 300 millionth person be born and how can this be determined?
Thanks!
Linda Jacobsen:
There really is no way to determine who the exact 300 millionth American is or where they will be born because the U.S. does not have a system that tracks the population in real time, i.e. records each birth as it happens, each death as it happens, and counts each person who enters and leaves the U.S. at each instant. Even the U.S. Census Bureau's population clock is just an estimate.
Thomas Giglio:
Is there a bigger or smaller share of children in poverty now than there was when the U.S was at $200 million?
Have poverty rates decreased in general?
Linda Jacobsen:
The share of children in poverty today (18%) is actually slightly higher than it was in 1967(17%), when the U.S. reached 200 million in population. Trends in poverty rates since the late 1960s have varied by age group. Poverty rates among the elderly (65+) have declined since 1967 from 30% down to 10% today. Poverty rates for people under age 65 generally declined until the mid 70s, and then rose across the 1980s, and then declined again across the 1990s. However, poverty rates for children and adults age 18 to 64 rose slightly after 2000.
Issa Almasarweh:
What proportion of current U.S population are foreign-born and what will be the implications of this on social integration, ethnic composition and US immigration policy?
Linda Jacobsen:
About 12 percent of the current U.S. population is foreign-born. Immigration is certainly contributing to the increasing racial and ethnic diversity of the U.S. population. The share of the population who will be Asian and the share who will be Hispanic is projected to double between 2000 and 2050. As far as the implications for social integration, it is important to note that the share of the population that was foreign-born was higher (13 - 15%) during the whole period from 1860 to 1920 than it is today. One pattern that is different today is that immigrants are increasingly dispersed in communities across the U.S.
Jerome:
What are the major environmental health implications of population increases?
Linda Jacobsen:
Population growth in the U.S. is having an impact on the environment. Land is currently developed at twice the rate of population growth, and some of the fastest growing regions in the U.S. are in the driest areas in the West, which has an impact on water resources. Air pollution is still a problem in many metropolitan areas in the U.S., and research shows poor air quality may play a role in increased health problems among children and the elderly. The U.S. already consumes 25% of the world's energy, and the U.S. is the single largest carbon dioxide emitter in the world. These topics are treated in more detail in the recent report, "U.S. National Report on Population and the Environment" from the Center for Environment and Population.
Jean-Frederic Tremblay:
Do you see the exceptional growth rate of the U.S. (by western standards) as a factor lessening the negative economic and fiscal effects of population ageing? On this issue, do you thing the U.S. are in a better posture than the rest of the developed countries?
Linda Jacobsen:
Increases in population are one factor that could potentially help to mitigate the economic and fiscal strains of a burgeoning elderly population. However, the extent to which this happens will depend to some extent on whether future cohorts of children are enabled to develop to their full potential. An increasing share of children are members of racial and ethnic minorities, and these children often fare worse than non-Hispanic whites on almost every measure of well-being (health, economic, etc.). Levels of education among blacks and Hispanics have risen, but still lag behind those of non-Hispanic whites. If the U.S. increases opportunities for minority children and reduces disparities in well-being then these future generations may be more productive workers and better able to support the growing elderly population. The U.S. is in a better position than the rest of the developed countries IF the U.S. invests appropriately to develop the full potential of all members of the population.
Yanyi K. Djamba:
Yes, the U.S. is reaching 300 million on October 11, 2006. Now that the fertility is below the replacement level, what are the proscpects for population growth?
Linda Jacobsen:
The population of the U.S. is projected to continue to grow, but not as fast as it did across the 1990s. It is important to note that fertility rates are not below replacement levels for all sub-groups in the U.S. population. For example, the total fertility rate among all Hispanic women is 2.8 children, and among Mexican women is 2.9 children.
Leo Estrada:
It is sometimes more important to focus on the distribution rather than just the raw numbers. Could reaching 300 million result in a more dispersed distribution?
Linda Jacobsen:
Yes, it is very important to focus on the geographic distribution of the population, not just on the overall size. Population growth in the U.S. since 1970 has been more heavily concentrated in the South and West than in the Midwest and the Northeast. In fact, the West surpassed the Northeast in total population back in 2000, and is projected to overtake the Midwest region before 2030. The South will continue to have the largest population of any region through 2030. The population is also becoming more concentrated in metropolitan areas, especially in the suburbs. Fifty percent of all Americans currently reside in the suburbs of metropolitan areas.
Sam Roberts:
When are we scheduled to hit 400 million
Linda Jacobsen:
The Census Bureau currently projects that the U.S. will hit 400 million in 2043.
Bruno:
Is the population increasing proportionally across different ethnic groups? If not which group is increasing faster and which one is slowing down? What are the feature social and economic consequences of the variations?
Linda Jacobsen:
No, the share who are non-Hispanic white has decreased from 80 percent in 1980 to 67 percent today, and will decrease to half by 2050. The share who are Hispanic more than doubled from 6 to 13% between 1980 and 2000 and is projected to reach 24% by 2050. The share who are Asian is also projected to double by the year 2050. On social and economic impacts, see my answer to an earlier question on the impacts on the child population.
Bill:
Is information about population in the US and around the world important enough to make it into the core middle school and high school curricula in this era of emphasis on basic educational content and skills? If so, how can teachers do this?
Linda Jacobsen:
Yes, lesson plans on PRB's website are very popular with middle and high school teachers, and the analysis of population dynamics can be effectively used to teach basic math and reading skills that are the focus of educational standards testing. These lesson plans can be found on the Educators page on PRB's website.
Ashley:
Could you talk a bit about some of the ways the population has changed since 1967?
Linda Jacobsen:
We described a number of these important changes in the article on our website, "The U.S. at 300 Million". You can read it at www.prb.org/300million.
Lacey Grummons:
How fast is the U.S. population increasing as compared to other countries throughout the world?
Linda Jacobsen:
The U.S. is growing faster than any other industrialized country in the world, but slower than most developing countries, including India and China.
Royce Fincher:
What is the percentage of our nation's growth that is attributable to immigrants and their descendants. (I've heard different numbers, doubtlessly because of how rapidly immigrants become reproductive and how many generations are included when you state "their descendants.") foreign
Linda Jacobsen:
According to the Pew Hispanic Center, immigrants and their descendants accounted for 55% of the increase in U.S. population since 1967.
