From the New York Times: “Asians have surpassed Hispanics as the largest wave of new immigrants to the United States, pushing the population of Asian descent to a record 18.2 million and helping to make Asians the fastest-growing racial group in the country, according to a study released Tuesday by the Pew Research Center.” The study also identifies Asians as  the highest earning and and best-educated racial group in the United States. This news comes on the heels of the American media’s focus on immigration due to President Obama’s decision to stop deporting illegal immigrants.
