anti-immigration movements

Anti-immigration movements are groups or efforts that oppose or seek to limit immigration into a country. They often focus on concerns about economic impacts, cultural change, security, or resource strain. These groups may advocate for stricter border controls, visa policies, or restrictions on certain groups of migrants. Their motivations can range from protecting local jobs and traditions to national security. While some concerns are rooted in valid policy debates, these movements can also foster fear or xenophobia, influencing public opinion and political decisions regarding immigration policies.
