Research found how immigrants in the U.S. can enhance wages and job prospects for native-born workers. A 1% increase in college-educated immigrants in an area can result in a 7.4% wage hike for U.S.-born college graduates in that same area. This study underscores how immigrants' abilities complement those of native-born workers, ultimately boosting overall productivity and wages.

The Court clarified that Mckesson cannot be held accountable for injuries caused by an unidentified protester during a demonstration he organized.
This ruling underscores the critical nature of First Amendment protections for protest organizers, highlighting that imposing liability on them for the actions of others could hinder their ability to exercise their right to free speech.

#NALpistasDidThat
Here are some of the amazing things our alumni have done recently:
Arizona State Representative Analise Oritz co-sponsored three bills that were just signed into law: HB 2297 addresses the state’s housing affordability and homelessness crises by making it easier to transition abandoned strip malls and businesses complexes into housing; HB 2040 and HB 2194 will save residents money when purchasing event tickets by cracking down on bad actors who price-gouge.

Colorado State Representative Iman Jodeh (Elected Officials Network & Training Panelist) was joined by political activist Angela Davis as the two voiced their support for University of Colorado students calling for liberation and the end of apartheid.

Michigan State Senator Stephanie Chang’s (Ready to Lead Michigan 2011) proposed State Resolution 110 was successfully adopted. The resolution designates April 21- 27 as Black April Memorial Week, which recognizes both the tragedy of the Vietnam War and the strength of the Vietnamese diaspora community who have laid down roots in the United States.


Ann Arbor Public School Board Member Rima Mohammad (Ready to Lead AAPI Women 2024) launches her campaign to run for Michigan State Representative in House District 33! 


New York City Councilmembers Alexa Aviles (Ready to Lead® National Women’s Training 2019) and Shahana Hanif (Ready to Run® 2019, Ready to Win® 2019) attended the solidarity encampment at Columbia University and reaffirmed their support for students fighting for freedom and equal rights in the face of hostile university administrators and armed police battalions.
