Abstract
American immigration policy has evolved into a three-part compartmentalization, pertaining respectively to family reunion, the admission of refugees as well as asylum-seekers, and the procurement of labor. The latter has been the most problematic, and the object of intense activity by contending economic and political interests, with alignments cutting across the usual left-right continuum. The paper examines how the interplay of these forces shaped the legislative process resulting in enactment of the Immigration Reform and Control Art of 1986.
