    Some economic effects of migration of undocumented foreign nationals are that it creates labor market competition, overpopulation which may threatens the security of legal residence, reduce wages as the are being underpaid and also they contribute to both state and local taxes through the buying of food, clothing and shelter which is actually good for the economy.

    Some positive effects of undocumented people in the United States are that they are usually hungry and make something out of themselves here in the US. There are a lot of citizens that take advantage of the system and are lazy. A lot of undocumented people are will to take a job that most people are not willing to do, or feel they some be getting paid more to do it. So at least we have immigrants and undocumented people that are ready and willing to work. They really know what it is to have nothing and come from a poor country.

    Migration is always a very hot topic in the US.
    Some of the economic effects of migration into the United States by undocumented foreign nationals are more innovation, a better educated workforce, greater occupational specialization, better matching of skills with jobs, and higher overall economic productivity.Immigration also has a net positive effect on combined federal, state, and local budgets. But not all taxpayers benefit equally. In regions with large populations of less educated, low-income immigrants, native-born residents bear significant net costs due to immigrants’ use of public services, especially education.

    Illegal immigartion lowers our country’s work force as illegal immigrants can be paid less because they are not bound by any minimum wage laws as they are not legally citizens. It also leads to certain areas becoming overpopulated. I say that these people need to legally become citizens to stick around here and once they do I’ll have no issue with them sticking around! This is a country of immigrants after all!

    Some of the economic effects of migration into the United States by undocumented foreign nationals is that they contribute to state and local taxes. They’re also more hardworking than US citizens since they are trying to work for their families.

    Many people would say that Labor Market Competition would be the most common effect that undocumented foreign  has in the United States, however I believe that immigrants work really hard and some people might say that they take away labor from USA citizens however they have some of the hardest job that nobody wants plus they help  the economy and keep the United States a home for those who want to grow in life.

    Some economic effects of migration in to the US by undocumented foreign nationals are competition in labor market, their contribution in state and local taxes, more productivity etc. They are willingly down for any kind of jobs and do hard work which helps to grow US economy. They also contribute to the federal budget.

    “What are some of the economic effects of migration into the United States by undocumented foreign nationals?”

    Some economic effects are over populated areas, multiple people in one dwelling. A greater economic and agricultural need for resources. Undocumented people cannot legally work so they will work for less money making the job market decrease for American residents. Crime could also be a factor since there are more people congested to a certain area but crime will always be around.

    Some of the economic effects of migration into the United States by undocumented foreign nationals is unregulated workers are often underpaid, this keeps wages lower in a particular area. Unregulated workers will also endure poor working conditions or take on almost any job. Others see it as a “threat” because they feel that they are taking jobs away from them. They also contribute to state and local taxes.

    It has a negative effect because without DACA, some undocumented foreigners can’t get employment opportunities because they don’t acquire the necessary citizen documents to approve them for work in America although they have the educational credentials. Lets take the life of 34 yo female, Hernandez for example, according to the article “From ‘Dream Jobs’to Bussing Tables Again”, Alana Semuels states that “She’d had two job offers in marketing “in the six figures” upon graduating, she told me, but she’d had to turn them down because she didn’t have the proper papers.”

    Undocumented foreign nationals have huge impact on economics in this country. Earlier this year Democrats forced a shut down of the US government. This forced all military members to receive a pay freeze, all employees working at any federal establishments, and all Government contractors. The reason this is negative is due to economic strain on Americans working who unnecessarily were forced off of work (in most cases with out pay) for funding of illegal immigration to be determined.
