Billionaire real estate investor Sam Zell said anti-immigration sentiment jeopardizes the future of the U.S.

“The United States has been the leader in the world for 200 years because it’s had a very aggressive immigration policy,” Zell, 75, said Thursday at the annual Tiger 21 conference in Boca Raton, Florida. “I think that this current period of anti-immigration is very dangerous to the future of our country.”
