FAIR: Federation For American Immigration Reform
FAIR is a national, non profit, public interest membership organisation of concerned citizens who share a common belief that our nations immigration policies must be reformed to serve national interest.
Their publication and research is used by academics and government officials in preparing new legislation. This would suggest it is a rather influential widely supported cause.
Founded in 1979 FAIR has got attention from the media in various forms that has brought it to the attention of american citizens and led to a following of over 250,000 members.
Members of FAIR believe immigration has a severe impact on important issues such as health, education, employment and crime etc. also suggesting it hinders the abilities of current american citizens. Therefore they aim to put an end to all illegal immigration and reduce significantly the number of immigrations able to migrate to america annually.
