ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION
Illegal immigration to the United States is in the public eye once again. Televised accounts of the bombing of the World Trade Center in New York, the Zoe Baird hearings, and the grounding of the Golden Venture ship carrying large numbers of undocumented Chinese immigrants have made the problem difficult to ignore. In addition, such individual states as California, Florida, and Arizona, concerned about the number of unauthorized migrants within their jurisdictions, are seeking reimbursement from the federal government for an array of education, health, and other social services they are required by federal law to provide to these individuals. For numerous reasons, illegal immigration is a difficult issue to study. Not the least of the obstacles is the fact that the number of unauthorized immigrants entering the United States is unobserved and therefore not precisely known. In addition, no census or other federally sponsored survey asks respondents about their legal status, so the impact of undocumented immigration is often inferred from other indicators. The public's impression about unauthorized migration is frequently formed from scenes of Cubans and Haitians intercepted on the high seas or from pictures of clandestine migrants crossing the Mexico-United States border. As a consequence, the public perception about the nature and consequences of illegal immigration may differ substantially from what the research literature suggests.
