SECURE BORDER, ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY

AND IMMIGRATION REFORM ACT OF 2007

• Our nation’s immigration policy is broken. The number of undocumented and
illegal immigrants in the United States is estimated to exceed 11.5 million, and
that number is growing rapidly.

• There is very little relationship between the needs of the economy and the
composition of the workforce immigrating to the US.
