The ban will prevent businesses and universities from filling critical gaps. The Council is ready to use all tools at our disposal—litigation, advocacy, and public education—so that immigrants can continue to be a part of our nation’s economic recovery.

Dear John,

The anticipated proclamation suspending employment-based visas through the end of the year was announced last night.

The economic fallout from the coronavirus is being used to justify the sweeping changes to the immigration system that the Trump administration has pursued since taking office.

However, many of the people impacted by the suspension are the family members of those on the front lines combating the coronavirus. The ban will prevent businesses and universities from filling critical gaps.

The Council is ready to use all tools at our disposal—litigation, advocacy, and public education—so that immigrants can continue to be a part of our nation’s economic recovery.

Make a gift today to support the Council’s defense of our immigration system.

John,

The Trump administration may soon announce more immigration restrictions—this time on employment-based visas.

But how does the employment-based immigration system work? This fact sheet from the American Immigration Council makes it easy to understand and explain.

It’s more important than ever for the public—and policy makers—to understand what’s at stake when the administration continues its assault on immigrants. One defense against these attacks is understanding the facts to push back on misinformation and harmful immigration policy.

Immigrant workers are vital to the American workforce. As our nation recovers from the coronavirus pandemic, immigrants in all industries will be essential to rebuilding our nation.

 
Sincerely,




Beth Werlin
Executive Director
