This video comes from the pro-immigration reform group FWD.us, so it should be said that it comes with a political and activist slant.

- Undocumented immigrants don’t pay taxes.
- Most new immigrants come from Latin America.
- DREAMers affect the U.S. economy negatively.
- Most immigrants are undocumented.
Watch the video to learn the facts.
