Today, the United States is home to the <u>largest immigrant</u> population in the world. Even though immigrants assimilate faster in the United States compared to developed European nations, immigration policy has become a highly contentious issue in America.
Immigrants are at the forefront of <u>innovation</u> and <u>ingenuity</u> in the United States, accounting for a disproportionately high share of patent filings, science and technology graduates, and senior positions at top venture capital-funded firms.
In addition, the presence of immigrants often creates opportunities for <u>less-skilled native workers</u> to become more specialized in their work, thereby <u>increasing their productivity.</u>
Immigration generally also improves the government’s <u>fiscal situation</u>, as many immigrants pay more in taxes over a lifetime than they consume in government services.
However, native-born residents of states with large concentrations of less-educated immigrants may face <u>larger tax burdens</u>, as these immigrants pay less in taxes and are more likely to send children to public schools.
