As she presents her opinions in the May 2 issue of the Sun Journal, I am sure Dr. Monique Aniel is concerned, and sincere. Sadly, however, she is also far off on the wrong track and, as a physician, I must admit I would expect much more from her.
Her opening sentence raises the hope that she will be addressing the real, overriding issue of climate change and its effects. Most unfortunately, however, she immediately verges off into inaccurate and unfounded criticism of Dora Ann Mills M.D., director of the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention, alleging that Dr. Mills' statements "are not based on peer-reviewed studies, but are merely opinions without concrete substantiation.

The contributions of immigrants are many, particularly when it comes to the pace of economic growth. Immigrants both power and grease the engines that run the economy. In fact, just over half of the increase in the US labor force over the last decade was the result of immigration legal and illegal. Immigrants' labor force contributions will continue to be important in the near future as the US workforce ages and the baby boomers retire. Despite immigrants' contributions to economic growth and efficiency, policymakers will continue to debate the costs and benefits of immigration because, while economic growth makes the economy bigger, a larger economy does not necessarily make US natives better off. The influx of workers on the high and low ends of the skill distribution has made the gro...
