This resource helped me get many facts in for my essay and especially for my intro . i learned many things like one of the facts that i learned The illegal immigrant population grew by 27% between 2000 and 2009, according to the Department of Homeland Security. another fact that i learned was Twenty-four percent of illegal immigrants reside in California; 16% reside in Texas. they reside in texas because texas is close to mexico and many people don't want to travel any farther since they might get caught so they stay in texas .
