The legacy of immigration to the United States permeates the debate over current immigration policy. Because our self-definition as a nation is at stake in this debate, the issue of immigration arouses our deepest sentiments regarding the communities in which we live.

By the early part of the next century, if current laws remain in force and current population trends continue, most of America's children on any given day will be entitled to support from …
