How might immigration contribute to income inequality in the United States?

1. Many immigrants' willingness to do jobs for less money than native-born residents
2. Being the primary income earners in the family
3. Advocating for higher minimum wages
4. A willingness to join labor unions as in previous immigrant trends


1
Explanation: 1. Many unskilled immigrants are willing to take jobs at lower pay in order to be employed, which undercuts labor hiring for native-born residents.
2. Newer immigrant families traditionally have as many members of the family employed as possible to contribute to the family income.
3. Immigrant groups are not perceived to be actively advocating minimum wage increases at this time.
4. Labor union membership has declined and current immigrant groups are not union advocates as they have been in the past.
