NumbersUSA Community Members,

This is no ordinary message. This is a direct call to action. We need you to join us in this critical election year to execute a specific plan to solve the immigration crisis.

Our great country is on life support. This is not an exaggeration as we find ourselves in the midst of the worst border crisis in American history. Voters overwhelmingly have declared loud and clear their demand for immigration reform with border security often ranked #1 in polls and in the minds of millions of disenfranchised, ignored, and just down-right fed-up Americans.

So what's this bold plan you ask?

1. To JOIN NumbersUSA,
2. To send your Action Alerts to your Congress member, and to
3. DONATE.

Your financial support will ensure that together, we are all successful.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is our year; possibly more so than ever in the 28 year history of NumbersUSA's existence. We need all hands on deck. We need the entire NumbersUSA community of members to come together and overwhelm Congress with action alerts. We need good citizens and voters like you to be active in your communities, states, and nation. And we also need your financial support.

Recalling the words of Rep. Barbara Jordan, Chairwoman of the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform, 1996,…

NumbersUSA is hands down the national organization best positioned to fully support the empowerment of every American to achieve sensible immigration policy. This major mobilization effort also requires members regular activism and financial investment with donations.

Here is a recap of why investing in NumbersUSA is the best and wisest choice for achieving:

Sensible immigration that is legal immigration. Sensible immigration that is less immigration.

NumbersUSA is the largest single-issue, grassroots advocacy organization in the country with over 8 million supporters, members, and activists. Thanks to our efforts and the support of NumbersUSA’s member community over the last 28 years, there are at least 40 million fewer people in the country today (that’s another California) than there would have been had we not stopped bad immigration policies. We have also helped forge three sensible immigration federal laws and many more in over 18 states.

We accomplish our mission to empower you, the American citizen and voter, through our four main initiatives: Federal, States, The Hiring Line, and Sustainability. Here is a quick breakdown of our goals that your donations will support:

Your Voice on the Hill

2024-2025 Goals:

1. Track and analyze every immigration bill introduced by each Congress for its impact on immigration numbers (with more than 650 introduced so far in the 118th Congress).
2. Educate and influence the staff that will craft policy proposals for a potential new presidential administration in 2025.
3. Train and equip the next generation of congressional leaders and their staff on sensible immigration policy.
4. Empower millions of voters to place urgent phone calls, emails, tweets, and other communications to Congress, demanding good immigration law and fighting against bad immigration policies like amnesty, catch-and-release, and importing cheap labor to compete with American workers.

Your Voice at Home

2024-2025 Goals:

1. Establish mandatory E-Verify and state specific enforcement mechanisms in at least 5 more states. (E-Verify requirements exist in 18 states already.)
2. Use the referendum process in applicable states to bypass intransigent lawmakers.
3. Develop state-focused grade cards and candidate comparisons for closely contested races.
4. Influence elections in the state races with well-targeted, informative content that will make the difference between defeating powerful opponents and getting the policy wins voters want.
5. Defeat any immigration policies that would go against the five goals of the States Initiative by deploying thousands of timely calls, emails, and social media messages from NumbersUSA members to state lawmakers to overwhelm the opposition and ensure the right legislative outcomes.
6. Conduct and disseminate state level polling to underscore that sensible policy goals are overwhelmingly popular with the public.

The voice for Americans left behind by bad immigration policy

2024-2025 GOALS:

1. Increase NumbersUSA’s Black membership by 100,000.
2. Outreach to all 115 HBCUs to educate the next generation of Black American leaders on the disproportional impact of high immigration on their people and what policies will change that impact from continuing.
3. Identify and support public voices from the Black community who will use their platforms to advance the immigration work of past leaders such as Barbara Jordan, A. Philip Randolph, and Booker T. Washington.
4. Create a Center of Influence (COI) network within HBCUs and local groups by cultivating influencers within those communities.
5. Bring national attention to the 100-year anniversary of the Immigration Act of 1924, whose immigration restrictions led to the Great Migration and made America a middle class nation.
6. Forge alliances with organizations to empower Black voters to achieve sensible immigration policy.

The voice of sensible immigration for the environment

2024-2025 GOALS

1. Expand NumbersUSA’s Center of Excellence on Sprawl to publish and release up to eight new studies and reports, and update current research, web sites, and support documentation.
2. Update the NumbersUSA National Sprawl Study and produce a new report for California.
3. Targeted media campaigns in sprawl “hot spots” and politically relevant states.
4. Identify and support three new “ambassadors” who will present and promote NumbersUSA findings to the media and the higher education community.
5. Forge alliances with organizations that share the goal of achieving a sustainable immigration policy.
6. Publish and distribute a sprawl study guide for professors of higher education.
7. Surpass 1 million followers on the Congestion Ahead Facebook page and recruit 2,000 like-minded activists.

All of these issues combined seem like an insurmountable mountain of problems facing the United States today; and they would be without a unified effort. This is where NumbersUSA steps in. Your donations, right now, today are a critically important part of that unified front with us.

NumbersUSA is your one-stop-shop for making an impact in either grassroots activism and taking your message directly to Congress. NumbersUSA is not just the voice of over 8 million members, but the arms of the largest collection of activists on the single issue of immigration in policy today.

Join us in calling on your government to act on immigration for the sake of America’s future. Your donation of $10, $100, $1,000, $10,000, or whatever amount you can give will go directly to ensuring our American dream stays a reality.

If each member were to contribute both financially and in activism, NumbersUSA could broaden its impact in both the state house and on Capitol Hill, while also protecting our beautiful environment and advocating for the needs of historically disenfranchised communities.

Please do everything you can to make an impact today for a brighter tomorrow!

Gratefully,

Steven Firestone, Chief Development and Marketing Officer
