Muslims are the fastest growing bloc of immigrants, according to new census data published by the US Center for Immigration Studies.<\/p>\n
The report, which analyzes data from American Community Survey (ACS), finds that the foreign-born population in the US hit a new record high 42.4 million in July 2014.<\/p>\n
The report details that some of \u201cthe sending countries with the largest percentage increases in the number of immigrants living in the United States since 2010 were Saudi Arabia (up 93 percent); Bangladesh (up 37 percent); Iraq (up 36 percent); Egypt (up 25 percent); Pakistan, India, and Ethiopia (all up 24 percent); Nigeria and Ghana (both up 21 percent).\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn contrast to most sending regions and countries, the number of immigrants from Europe and Canada declined,\u201d the report notes.<\/p>\n
As Breitbart News has previously documented, every year the United States voluntarily imports more than a quarter of a million\u2013 or 280,000\u2013 Muslim migrants. This number includes 117,423 migrants who were permanently resettled with Legal Permanent Resident status, as well as an additional 122,921 temporary Muslim workers and foreign students, and 39,932 Muslim refugee and asylees. This means that each year, the U.S. admits a number of Muslim migrants larger in size than the entire population of Des Moines, Iowa.<\/p>\n
According to Pew Research, only 11 percent of Muslim Americans identify as Republican or leaning-Republican, making them one of the most reliable Democrat voting blocs in the country. As Politico recently reported, the Obama Administration is working to get green card holders registered to vote. Because refugees and green card holders can freely collect welfare, this magnifies the existing cultural challenges for Republicans in getting non-Western voters to support Western political ideas.<\/p>\n
Muslim parents taunted school officials in Jersey City, New Jersey after schools would not close for Eid al-Adha: \u201cWe\u2019re going to be the majority soon!\u201d<\/p>\n
The Blaze reported:<\/p>\n
The Jersey City Board of Education voted last week not to close schools for the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha, one of the most important holidays for Muslims.<\/p>\n
School board members in New Jersey made their decision Thursday despite appeals from Muslim attendees who showed up to advocate that the board change the school schedule.<\/p>\n
At one point, things became so heated that an official urged security to \u201ctake charge\u201d of the situation. At least one person was seen on video being escorted from the meeting.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe feel alienated from the Board of Education, we feel alienated from this system,\u201d Omar Abouelkhair told WNBC-TV.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re going to be the majority soon,\u201d another said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
