Childhood Firearm Injuries in the United States. / : Katherine A. Fowler et al. Pediatrics 2017;140(1):e20163486
Recent evidence from the National Survey of Children's Exposure to Violence indicates that 4.2% of children aged 0 to 17 in the United States have witnessed a shooting in the past year. Children across the United States also directly experience the fatal and nonfatal consequences of firearm violence. Firearm-related deaths are the third leading cause of death overall among US children aged 1 to 17 years.
CRS: Unauthorized Aliens Residing in the United States: Estimates Since 1986. / : Ruth Ellen Wasem. Specialist in Immigration Policy. December 13, 2012. - 19 s.
'Estimates derived from the March Supplement of the U.S. Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey (CPS) indicate that the unauthorized resident alien population (commonly referred to as illegal aliens) rose from 3.2 million in 1986 to 12.4 million in 2007, before leveling off at 11.1 million in 2011. The estimated number of unauthorized aliens had dropped to 1.9 million in 1988 following passage of a 1986 law that legalized several million unauthorized aliens. Jeffrey Passel, a demographer with the Pew Hispanic Research Center, has been involved in making these estimations since he worked at the U.S. Bureau of the Census in the 1980s.
Similarly, the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Immigration Statistics (OIS) reported an estimated 11.5 million unauthorized alien residents as of January 2011, up from 8.5 million in January 2000. The OIS estimated that the unauthorized resident alien population in the United States increased by 37% over the period 2000 to 2008, before leveling off since 2009. The OIS estimated that 6.8 million of the unauthorized alien residents in 2011 were from Mexico. About 33% of unauthorized residents in 2011 were estimated to have entered the United States since 2000, but the rate of illegal entry appears to be slowing. The OIS based its estimates on data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.'
Forced to flee: caring for the elderly displaced by war, poverty, and persecution abroad : hearing before the Special Committee on Aging, United States Senate, One Hundred Tenth Congress, first session, Washington, DC, December 5, 2007. U.S. G.P.O., 2008 - 104 s.
'Many of the individuals we will discuss here today are elderly refugees who fled persecution or torture in their home countries. They include Jews fleeing religious persecution in the former Soviet Union. Iraqi Kurds fleeing the former Saddam Hussein regime. Cubans and Hmong people from the highlands of Laos who served on the side of the United States military during the Vietnam war. Many of these refugees are elderly, and some are disabled and unable to work. Some have come with their families, some have come alone. Many are working to learn, at an advanced age, a new language and a new culture.
In my home State of Oregon, we have welcomed more than 55,000 refugees from around the world since 1975. Nearly twothirds of Oregon's refugee population are from the former Soviet Union or Vietnam. Many of these refugees found themselves fighting for and otherwise helping the United States in war. The remaining one-third of Oregon's refugees come from many Nations who have found themselves in troubled times. Somalia, Cuba, Bosnia and Afghanistan are just a few. Of these refugees, many are elderly and some will require additional services and support as they age.' s. 5.
