U.S. Immigration Policy and the Plight of Unskilled Workers

Other Titles
Abstract
The implications of immigration to the US are explored with reference to the impact on low-skilled labour markets and inequality in the US. Recent research indicates that low-skilled American workers are the main losers, with the result that the earnings disparity between high and low-skilled workers has widened.
