Dear Friend,

As the year draws to an end and the promise of a new one dawns, we are reflecting on the importance of independent, evidence-driven research and data to shape immigration policies that work better for all sectors of society. This is the Migration Policy Institute’s core mission—one that for us has taken new urgency at a moment of significant global and domestic change.

For nearly a quarter-century, MPI has served as a trusted, nonpartisan source of research, data, and analysis on myriad aspects of immigration. Our work equips policymakers, civic leaders, and journalists with the evidence they need to engage thoughtfully with one of the defining issues of our time.

This year, MPI produced original research, timely analysis, and essential data that informed decision-making across the political spectrum, grounded public debate in facts, and centered the real experiences of immigrants and receiving communities. This work depends on sustained investment in research capacity and analytical rigor.

As we near the end of the year, we invite you to consider supporting MPI’s mission. A year-end gift helps ensure that credible data and independent analysis remain accessible to all who rely on them.

You can make a year-end contribution here:

As MPI celebrates its 25^th anniversary next year, we hope you will join us as we fortify the Institute for our next quarter-century of work.

We are deeply grateful for your engagement with us and wish you a meaningful close to the year.
