Most of this population comes from less-developed countries. Like others have said, less-developed, less well-educated countries produce more offspring. Many more. Like 9, 10 per woman. The population growth isnt being cause by the relatively miniscule amounts of people in the US, and it certainly isnt going to be affected by a few people deciding they arent going to have kids. Go tell that to all the people in China or Africa.

By that line of reasoning:
Homocide is a problem. Its a huge problem, we all know this.
Most murders occur in less stable countries. Many more. In comparison, murder is occuring in relatively miniscule amounts in the US. Go tell all the people in Africa and the Middle East to stop murdering.
