[[link removed]]Dear John,
In support of the U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021 and our vision of Complete Inclusive Immigration Reform, Gamaliel Network’s Civil Rights of Immigrants Campaign (CRI) and Dr. Raul Hinojosa, founder and director of UCLA’s North American Integration and Development Center, will hold a Congressional Briefing May 5, 2021 at 12 p.m. CT (1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT) via Zoom Webinar, Facebook Live and YouTube. 43 members of Congress have been invited to attend, and the briefing is open to the media and members of the public.
With this Congressional Briefing, Gamaliel and Dr. Hinojosa seek to address the need for Complete Inclusive Immigration Reform to protect the rights of the 11 million undocumented migrants in the United States. According to Dr. Hinojosa’s recent study, A Path to Prosperity: The Macroeconomic Benefits of Four Immigrant Regularization Scenarios, the United States’ unauthorized workers would generate an additional $1.5 trillion in national Gross Domestic Product (GDP) cumulated over 10 years. Additionally, Dr. Hinojosa found that the higher taxable incomes that would result from regularization and citizenship extended to all unauthorized workers would result in $367 billion in cumulative new tax revenues, and would increase employment opportunities over the next decade, creating 371,000 new jobs by 2031.
The briefing will include a presentation from Dr. Hinojosa on the economic impact of immigration reform, time for Congresspeople to respond to the briefing, and testimonies from impacted persons. Spanish translation will be available. Register for the Webinar here [[link removed]] , watch on Facebook Live @gamalielnetwork, or watch on YouTube here. [[link removed]]
