Global Population 1 Global Population Latasha Gibson Walden University SOCW 6051 Dr. Candice Beasley July 2, 2023 Abstract The global population for immigration to the United States has occurred for many years. Immigrants have entered the United States through several ports, such as by water, underground tunnels, walking through the desert, and several other ways.

Proveyer, personal communication, 10 April 2004)”.
