Answer:

According to the National Academy of Sciences, “immigration is integral to the nation’s economic growth.” That is partially because the U.S. workforce is getting older, which makes the arrival of tax-paying, job-creating, and business-starting newcomers an economic necessity. The report also found that there is “little evidence that immigration significantly affects the overall employment levels of native-born workers.”In fact, IRS data from 2015 shows that the agency received 4.4 million income tax returns from workers without Social Security numbers—who are more likely to be undocumented—which were worth $23.6 billion [PDF].What’s the difference between a refugee, asylum seeker, migrant, and immigrant?

The terms “asylum seeker,” “immigrant,” “migrant,” and “refugee” are often used interchangeably. The differences between the four, however, are important.

According to the International Rescue Committee:

Refugees are people living outside of the United States who were “forced to flee [their] home because of war, violence, or persecution, often without warning.”

Asylum seekers are people who are “seeking international protection from dangers in [their] home country, but whose claim for refugee status hasn’t been determined legally.” People seeking asylum are applying inside the United States. Whether a person is seeking asylum or status as a refugee, they have to meet the same challenging burden of proof. They must demonstrate “a well-founded fear of persecution” on the basis of race, religion, national origin, political opinion, or member of a social group.

Migrants are people who are “moving from place to place (within [their] country or across borders), usually for economic reasons such as seasonal work.”

Immigrants are people who have made “a conscious decision to leave his or her home and move to a foreign country with the intention of settling there.”

Answer:

In an article, "Americans’ Support For Immigration Is At Record Highs – But The Government Is Out Of Sync With Their Views," written by the Government Executive, shows that ever since Trump entered office, many citizens have been warmed towards immigrants. Trump has instated the border wall, ICE/detention centers, family separations, vast deportation, refugee admissions cut, increase in visa denials, increase in rejection for asylum seekers. With many statistics, it shows that with Trump in office, many Americans have never been "warmer" (supportive) to immigrants. They have done rallies, fundraisers, spoke up against ICE and those who set up detention centers, signed petitions, etcetera.

he thoughts and perspectives of indigenous individuals, especially those who lived during the 15th through 19th centuries, have survived in written form less often than is optimal for the historian. Because such documents are extremely rare, those interested in the Native American past also draw information from traditional arts, folk literature, folklore, archaeology, and other sources.

Native American history is made additionally complex by the diverse geographic and cultural backgrounds of the peoples involved. As one would expect, indigenous American farmers living in stratified societies, such as the Natchez, engaged with Europeans differently than did those who relied on hunting and gathering, such as the Apache. Likewise, Spanish conquistadors were engaged in a fundamentally different kind of colonial enterprise than were their counterparts from France or England.

The sections below consider broad trends in Native American history from the late 15th century to the late 20th century. More-recent events are considered in the final part of this article, Developments in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

North America and Europe circa 1492

The population of Native America

Scholarly estimates of the pre-Columbian population of Northern America have differed by millions of individuals: the lowest credible approximations propose that some 900,000 people lived north of the Rio Grande in 1492, and the highest posit some 18,000,000. In 1910 anthropologist James Mooney undertook the first thorough investigation of the problem. He estimated the precontact population density of each culture area based on historical accounts and carrying capacity, an estimate of the number of people who could be supported by a given form of subsistence. Mooney concluded that approximately 1,115,000 individuals lived in Northern America at the time of Columbian landfall. In 1934 A.L. Kroeber reanalyzed Mooney’s work and estimated 900,000 individuals for the same region and period. In 1966 ethnohistorian Henry Dobyns estimated that there were between 9,800,000 and 12,200,000 people north of the Rio Grande before contact; in 1983 he revised that number upward to 18,000,000 people.
