The United States is currently experiencing one of the largest waves of immigration in its history. Contrary to common assumptions, more than half of new immigrants are women. Despite this fact, U.S. immigration policy and most agencies serving immigrants have remained blind to gender differences and have treated all immigrants alike.

Maternal Mortality, Population Control, and the War in Women's Wombs: a Bioethical Analysis of Quinacrine Sterilizations |
19 Wisconsin International Law Journal 103 (Spring, 2001) |
