Many Members of this House have said it. They are leaking like a sieve. We have 2 million illegal immigrants. more or less. coming in every year. in addition to the 6 or 12 million that we have now. If you look at the demographic statistics. things are going to get much worse. not better. in the years to come. simply because the gap in living standards. the gap in job availability. is going to get much worse. All of Latin America at the present time needs 4 million additional jobs each year just to stay even with themselves at the pitiful. pathetic levels of roughly 50 percent unemployment and underemployment.
