B Stands for Border

Good afternoon,

This week, the Forum’s Field team is experiencing the border at El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. We’ll be visiting with migrants at shelters on both sides, meeting with advocates and Border Patrol, and learning and reflecting together on the situation at the Southern border. This report next week will include a recap of our experiences.

Until then, I encourage you to catch up on the Forum resources below that address some of what’s swirling in the world of immigration: 

• ARTICLE – Polling Details: Across Parties, Americans Support People Seeking Refuge
• WHITE PAPER – High-Skilled Immigration: America’s Key for Competitiveness and National Security (CNSI)
• FACT SHEET – Judge Hanen’s DACA Ruling 
• EXPLAINER – Humanitarian Parole and the Afghan Evacuation

In case it’s helpful, check out our Advocacy Resources Landing Page to learn more about how you can support the Forum’s efforts to achieve lasting, bipartisan solutions for immigrants. Until next week! 

Stay healthy and hopeful,

Adam
