"According to CIS, a non-profit think tank in favor of strong enforcement of immigration laws, new census data indicates that 115,000 people from Middle Eastern countries live in the United States illegally. The attacks have galvanized proponents of limited immigration and tight borders who are using them to fuel a much more aggressive agenda to crack down on illegal immigration and establish a new army of INS agents to track and hunt down law breakers who abuse U.S. visa or immigration policies....Immigration advocates are on their heels as their opponents...ride a swell of concern over national security."
