Conservatives Are Piling On The Flawed New Immigration Study From The Heritage Foundation - Business Insider: "In chief opposition to the Heritage plan is Americans for Tax Reform.
Grover Norquist's group has been in favor of immigration reform on the right, and called the Heritage study's cost estimates "vastly overblown."
Rep. Paul Ryan, the well-respected Chairman of the House Budget Committee, told CQ Roll Call that he didn't agree with the findings of the study.
"The Congressional Budget Office has found that fixing our broken immigration system could help our economy grow," he told Roll Call's David Drucker. "A proper accounting of immigration reform should take into account these dynamic effects."
Robert Costa at the National Review reports that Florida Senator Marco Rubio — the chief Republican patron of the immigration bill — also disputes the study. "
