1️⃣5️⃣ Blocking the Investment
People migrate anyway—just unsafely and with added impoverishment.
The red tape doesn’t stop movement.
It just makes it cruel, costly, and inefficient.
And it doesn’t just hurt them.
It cuts off investment—of time, talent, and trust—from people eager to contribute and those eager to benefit.
Legal paths don’t just make people safer.
They make everyone richer.

1️⃣2️⃣ What About Crime?
Data shows immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than natives.
It’s not a matter of opinion.
It’s fact.
Fear doesn’t match reality.

8️⃣ Immigrants Contribute
Immigrants pay taxes, often use fewer services, and support families here and abroad.
Letting them work legally increases contributions—and dignity—for all.

6️⃣ The Economists Agree
Economists—left, right, and center—overwhelmingly support more immigration.
Not out of idealism, but because the data is clear: it works.

A just society doesn’t measure success by how many people it locks up—but by how many people it empowers to thrive.
Overcriminalization traps nonviolent offenders in cycles of poverty and incarceration. We need laws that prevent harm, not laws that manufacture criminals.
