font-family:Arial;color:black'>The United States prides itself on being a
nation of immigrants, and the country has a long history of successfully
absorbing people from across the globe. The integration of immigrants and their
children contributes to our economic vitality and our vibrant and ever changing
culture. We have offered opportunities to immigrants and their children to
better themselves and to be fully incorporated into our society and in exchange
immigrants have become Americans - embracing an American identity and citizenship,
protecting our country through service in our military, fostering technological
innovation, harvesting its crops, and enriching everything from the nation's
cuisine to its universities, music, and art.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial;color:black'>Today, the 41 million immigrants in the United
States represent 13.1 percent of the U.S. population. The U.S.-born children of
immigrants, the second generation, represent another 37.1 million people, or 12
percent of the population. Thus, together the first and second generations
account for one out of four members of the U.S. population. Whether they are
successfully integrating is therefore a pressing and important question. Are
new immigrants and their children being well integrated into American society,
within and across generations? Do current policies and practices facilitate
their integration? How is American society being transformed by the millions of
immigrants who have arrived in recent decades?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine summarizes what
we know about how immigrants and their descendants are integrating into
American society in a range of areas such as education, occupations, health,
and language.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
