In March 2007, the Russell Sage Foundation published his newest book, Immigrants and Boomers: Forging a New Social Contract for the Future of America.
Immigrants and Boomers attempts to create a new framework for understanding the demographic challenges facing America and forging a national consensus to address them.
Many Americans regard the massive influx of immigrants over the past 30 years with great anxiety, fearing new burdens and unwanted changes to the nation's ethnic, social, and economic identity.
Virtually unnoticed in the contentious national debate over immigration is the even more significant demographic change about to occur as the first wave of the Baby Boom generation retires, slowly draining the workforce and straining the federal budget to the breaking point.
Myers in this book argues that each of these two powerful demographic shifts may hold the keys to resolving the problems presented by the other.
