Many Immigrants Go Home

At http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local&id=6519927 it is said that 500,000 immigrants from Latin America and other parts of the world are going home. At abc.com it said that it was because of the bad economy. It says from August 2007 to May 2008 illegal population has dropped 11 percent. That is a total 1.3 million people. Professor Jimenez says that there will be fewer illegal immigrants coming to America. The other website i looked at, http://www.upi.com/Top_News/2008/11/30/Illegal_immigrants_said_homeward_bound/UPI-70781228067001/ also mentioned that people leaving is because of the economy. But this website did mention that fewer immigrants are trying to get to the United States.
