Abstract
Description
PPL Policy Briefs provide concise summaries of policy-relevant academic research for policy makers and the public. This brief compares several socioeconomic indicators between children living with undocumented parents, lawful permanent resident (LPR) parents, and US-citizen parents. Next, given the current national spotlight on immigration reform and the potential for legalization for some or many undocumented immigrants, we estimate the effect of immigrant status legalization on poverty levels of children with undocumented parents.
