WASHINGTON, Jan. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Joe Biden was sworn in as the nation's 46th president, assuming the leadership of a nation that is engulfed in turmoil and suffering devastating job losses due to the pandemic. The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) cautions Mr. Biden that an immediate rush to enact a mass amnesty, reduce interior and perimeter enforcement, and increase the number of foreign guest workers, will simply create more competition for scarce jobs and be antithetical to the goal of unifying our nation.
Most Americans, across party, ideological, and demographic lines believe we need to secure our borders, protect the integrity of our humanitarian policies, and ensure that American workers are not undermined by mass immigration, especially during a time of crisis. A 2020 USA Today/IPSOS poll found that nearly 80 percent of the American public—across all party, ideological, and demographic lines—support curtailing immigration and guest worker admissions.
