[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cannot understand how our Democratic members of Congress cannot admit that we are at a crisis level.  What will it take?

And, I saw a report recently that said the number of illegal immigrants in our country is sorely underestimated.  It is likely it is doubled what has been estimated.

Anyone who says this isn't a crisis is not living in reality.

[quote]The number of undocumented immigrants living in the U.S. could be double what the generally accepted estimate is, according to a study released Friday by researchers from Yale University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

The U.S. government and most groups put the number of undocumented immigrants at around 11 million to 12 million, but researchers from Yale and MIT give a “conservative” number of 16. 7 million in 2016 and an average of 22 million, according to Yale Insights.

Bloomberg reported the study could validate claims made by President Trump that the real number on undocumented immigrants in the country is as high as 30 million and could offer ammunition for the president and immigration critics to take a harder stance on the issue.[/quote]

And anyone who cites Faux News on immigration is immediately discounted. Bye bye. [/quote]

Screw you. 
The actual study - by Yale - was linked in the article.  https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0201193
Happy reading, jerk.  [/quote]
