John,

Today, we're launching "A Better Way Forward: 2024 Immigration
Principles," six new principles for more practical immigration
solutions. **Watch this video to learn more >>**

These principles reflect our deeply rooted values as a nation. We
believe these are vital principles for any leader working for an
orderly, secure and humane immigration system - especially amid an
election year.

We know from consistent polling year over year that these principles
have the support of Americans across the political spectrum who want
solutions.

**For a better immigration system in the United States, we must:**

1. Show compassion and justice to longtime residents, including
Dreamers, by allowing them an opportunity to earn lawful status and
citizenship.

2. Continue our moral leadership in the world as a welcoming and
compassionate nation that offers refuge to the persecuted.

3. Honor the human dignity of all people through our words and actions.

4. Address the need for safety and security on the border and in our
communities. Promote community trust and safety by focusing immigration
enforcement on threats to public safety and national security and
preserving federal leadership in setting immigration enforcement policy.

5. Enable fair and orderly legal immigration that continues to solidify
our global economic leadership. Modernize laws to reduce backlogs and
improve work visa programs for current and future workers.

6. Defend the longstanding constitutional principle of birthright
citizenship.

We hope our leaders consider these principles as a guiding point for
more compassionate and humane immigration solutions.

Please don't forget to watch our **introductory video**
,
and make sure to follow us on social media, where we will be releasing
shorter clips of each of the principles so that you can share with your
own followers.

Thank you for your ongoing support,

Jennie Murray

**President & CEO**
