Making Immigration Policy Work In The United States, California Latino Legislative Caucus

California Assembly

Nowhere in the United States has immigration become as controversial a political issue as in California. In the 1980s, immigrants accounted for one-third of the nation's population growth, with California absorbing about half of the newcomers.
