 Evaluation of the Immigration Reform and National Security after 9/11 in United StateBahare Fallahi and Shahnaz Rahpaymaelizehee Journal of Public Policy & Governance, 2015, vol. 2, issue 2, 48-55 Abstract: The purpose of this review paper is to evaluate the immigration reform and national security after the September 11th events. The findings of this study show that immigration policy after September 11th had a major influence on Muslim immigrants particularly in the United States in 2001. The reasons of this outcome drive from the United States policies toward the immigration issue which mostly try to focus on national security of the United States and the war on terrorism that are the main doctrine of President Bush. As a result, the United States has considered some policies in order to limit any immigrants who might be as the threat toward the security of United States. Another finding of this paper is the behaviour of Anti-Muslim racism among American population which is increased significantly after the tragedy of September 11th in 2001 which has affected on the lives of millions of Muslims in this country. However, despites the actions of the immigration policies against Muslims after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks did not stop and continue to expand.
