Highly regarded by both Republicans and Democrats, Federal Reserve Chairman
Alan Greenspan stated to the U.S. House of Representatives Financial
Services Committee on February 17, 2005 that he supports increased
immigration. He voiced his support not only because immigrants help our
social security system, but also because they help the U.S. economy in
general.

The Federal Reserve works to ensure that the United States always has a stable
financial system. Mr. Greenspan has been the Chairman of the Federal Reserve
Board since August 11, 1987, serving under Presidents Reagan, George H. W.
Bush, Clinton, and George W. Bush. His revered
status as the premier U.S. fiscal advisor means that Congress and the White
House generally give his words substantial weight when making decisions on
policies with fiscal implications.

Mr. Greenspan's position on immigration has historically been positive. We
have previously discussed Mr. Greenspan in articles available on
MurthyDotCom, including in our February 5, 2000 article,
Immigration is Good for the
U.S. Economy.
