Cat, I doubt your asserted stats and I don’t think there’s a “crisis” but think there is an immigration problem.

Well that’s something.

Here are the links:

More illegal immigrants leaving the US than entering over Mexican border (this is an article, but that stats are from Pew):

And here: http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/statements/2017/apr/26/ron-kind/yes-experiencing-net-outflow-illegal-undocumented-/

Crime rates were already covered in mfm’s post.

Economic impact: http://budgetmodel.wharton.upenn.edu/issues/2016/1/27/the-effects-of-immigration-on-the-united-states-economy

There are definitely problems, I agree. Crimes are definitely being committed, and that needs to stop. Hate crimes are through the roof. No, there’s plenty of room for improvement.
