Roy Beck Is Passionate About Immigration Reform

American author and reporter Roy Beck is best known for his controversial illustration of immigration using gumballs to dramatize the impact (or lack thereof) on world poverty. His highly debated conclusion is that the United States should be doing more to assist impoverished countries around the world rather than implicitly encouraging movement from poor areas to richer ones. But his distinguished and varied career spans over 50 years, from a beat reporter to a lecturer at Dartmouth

In College, he has been on staff at newspaper across the country from Michigan to Dallas to Washington, DC, and has received recognition and commendations for coverage of topics as diverse as non-government humanitarian efforts, population growth and urban expansion, religion, and business. Roy Beck is credited with authorship for articles in the Boston Globe, the New York Times, New York Newsday, the Christian Science Monitor, The Washington Post, the Journal of Policy History, the Los Angeles Times, and numerous other periodicals, newspapers and magazines. He was even awarded the U.S. Army Commendation Medal (non-combat) for his writings.

Roy Beck has also written several books and investigative reports including “On Thin Ice” and “Prophets & Politics” which cover public policy and politics, and two books on his favorite topic of immigration, “Re-Charting America’s Future” and “The Case Against Immigration: The moral, economic, social and environmental reasons for reducing immigration back to traditional levels”.

Roy Beck’s passion for the topic of immigration led him to establish NumbersUSA in 1996. This is an on-line network of advocates who work to strengthen and defend our borders and to enforce existing laws to control the massive flow of undocumented workers into our country. NumbersUSA has grown to more than 9 million members who work diligently to stem the flow of illegal immigrants into our country. See this article for additional information.
