The Immigrant WorkerImmigration has been a continuing source of needed manpower for the American economy during almost all periods of its history. During earlier periods, it provided large numbers of semiskilled and unskilled laborers needed to maintain our industrial revolution. At present, many immigrants are contributing their badly needed skills and professional talents to our increasingly complex economy. It is anticipated that this pattern, of immigrants matching their skills with the needs of our labor market, which has proven so beneficial to the immigrants themselves as well as to our economy, will continue into the future.
