As the world becomes more socially and economically interdependent, the movement of people is dramatically rising. With the increase in international migration, there has also been a corresponding increase in the regularization of migration at the national and international level that excludes certain groups of migrants. This thesis studies how the rights of undocumented economic immigrants in the US are not protected under national immigration law or international human rights law. My analysis of immigration policy and international human rights law shows that US immigration policy treats migrants as labor rather than human beings, and they do not address that migration is an inevitable global process. International law on the other hand, does advocate for the protection of the human rights of migrants but it has little power against national migration policies. These gaps within national and international policy to protect the rights of immigrants in the US leave non-governmental organizations (NGOs) as an alternative mechanism for migrants and immigrants to fight for their rights, particularly through grassroots NGOs. I conclude that cooperation between international human rights NGOs can help fill in the gaps in international human rights law and national immigration policy, and shift the discourse of immigration in the US to focus on a more human rights based approach.
