Federal Policy for Immigrant Children: Room for Common Ground?
From Center for Law and Social Policy:
by Ron Haskins, Mark Greenberg, and Shawn Fremstad. This policy brief, part of the Future of Children Policy Brief Series by the Brookings Institution, offers differing views from its authors on how to improve the well-being of children in immigrant families in the United States. Haskins emphasizes the need to tie public benefits for immigrant families to work through such policies as education and training and the earned income tax credit for families with children. While Greenberg and Fremstad argue that noncitizen families should have the same eligibility for public assistance as citizen families and support greater financial aid for early childhood education and other forms of schooling. 6 pages.
