Does Anyone Know Someone Hurt by Illegal Immigration?

I'm collecting stories for a Dallas firm, on the economic, social, and financial burden of illegal immigration, and especially want stories of individual loss. It's sad but it's important research about upcoming legislation. Any stories you can share would be helpful.

What can I do next?

I know you are looking for people who have been hurt, but I would like to let you know how undocumented immigrants have benefitted my life. First of all my two beautiful American boys are sons of an undocumented immigrant. I have been introduced to God by an undocumented immigrant and began a Christian life in a church of undocumented immigrants. The school I teach in has a large number of students who are either undocumented immigrants or children of such and without them our school would most likely close. I teach English as a Second Language and without such immigrants I would need to find another line of work. An undocumented citizen has been my trusted childcare provider for years. Many vacant buildings near where I live have been given new life by hispanic businesses (people who were once illegal immigrants). I have, myself lived in Mexico, and can understand why some Mexicans have chosen to leave behind their family, homes, language and culture to have a better life and provide opportunities for their families. I just hope that while you are trying to gather evidence to prove that these people are "hurting" Americans, that you also give consideration to how they are helping Americans.

Illegal immigration is a crime. It is just as bad as selling drugs, stealing and bank robbing.

Who is hurt by illegal immigration? All Americans

You know I was going to share a story about my one sole bad experience in Arizona with an illegial immigrant but you know what why focus one negative thing when there are so many positive things to focus on? Beleive me I know that crossing the border is a problem but I dont think this is the format to correct it. IT comes from legislation and the people in politics. These so called illegal immigrants are also people trying to better themselves. The one person who noted a unfortunate accident with a family I feel for their family but its an accident; it could have happened to anyone by anyone.

It really hasn't affected my family. I have been fortunate enough that any experience we've had with undocumented individuals has been positive.

I had one recently fix my website at a fraction of what one would normally pay. Another gave my hubby and I voice and guitar lessons for a fraction of what other instructors quoted us.
