CAIRCO Notes

American women voluntarily reached replacement level Fertility (2.1 children per woman) in 1972. Yet mass immigration is driving U.S. population growth and interstate migration. This growth is forced upon Americans by the immigration policies of Congress and of the Obama administration. We can't grow forever within the boundaries of a finite nation. When will we be allowed to stop the growth and control our destiny as a nation?
