B Stands for Building  

Happy New Year, 

At the National Immigration Forum, we believe there is a great window
of opportunity
 to
prioritize immigration legislation early this year. Without
congressional action on immigration, it is difficult to solve the
challenges at the border, combat labor shortages, or address other
negative impacts of inaction on immigrants and native-born Americans
alike.

Through building new bipartisan alliances, Democrats and Republicans can
work together to establish a consensus on immigration reform in the
aftermath of the push on including immigration in reconciliation efforts
.
It is vital for Congress to come together on this crucial issue before
the mid-term elections consume all attention. A bipartisan consensus
would positively benefit millions of people (including both undocumented
essential workers and U.S. citizens), which in return would expand the
U.S. economy by billions of dollars. And now is the time to act.  

Legislative solutions to immigration challenges will help address other
problems the United States is facing. Not only is providing certainty
and legal status for Dreamers and other essential workers vital, but
economic prosperity of immigrants also strengthens our economy
.
And only through bipartisanship can border security challenges be
resolved.  

We believe that the Biden Administration should pivot to build common
ground with Republicans and Democrats to extend relief to immigrant
families and communities across our nation before this window of
opportunity closes as we approach the midterm elections. 

The Bibles, Badges and Business network invites you to join us in
building new alliances and strengthening established ones to create
momentum towards a crucial consensus on immigration in 2022. 

Stay healthy and hopeful, 

Adam
