Several reports by MPI have been criticized by immigration analysts.

In 2013, MPI published a report arguing that the United States spends more on immigration enforcement than all other countries in the world combined. Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, pointed out that MPI mistakenly counted the entire budget of ICE and CBP as "enforcement", when much of the money spent by those agencies is unrelated to immigration.
