THE FORUM

MARCH 2022 EDITION

 

 

The U.S. is facing a labor crisis. With an aging citizenry, slow
population growth, and labor shortages in key industries, increasing
immigration is part of the solution. But to do so, we need to change our
current broken system.

The need for meaningful, bipartisan immigration reform is more critical
than ever. It's not only the right thing but the smart thing to do.

It's why we're hard at work pushing for incremental reforms to the
system - read on for more.

**1986 campaign**
It's been 36 years since meaningful immigration reform was passed by
Congress.

Everything - from the technology we use to the shows we consume to
how we dress and the way we communicate - looks much different than
it did then. The world has evolved - shouldn't our immigration laws?

That's the premise of our new 1986 campaign.

You too can call Congress for incremental immigration reforms.

, then
send a note to your Senator asking them to support meaningful,
bipartisan immigration reform **here**

**New poll: Majority of Americans support key immigration reforms**

According to a **new poll**

released last month, an overwhelming majority of Republicans,
Independents and Republicans want lawmakers to work together on key
immigration reforms. They want action now.

**The Alliance for a New Immigration Consensus**

Last month, on the heels of President Biden's State of the Union
address, the Forum joined nearly 30 organizations in announcing the
**Alliance for a New Immigration Consensus (ANIC)**
,
which is calling for bipartisan legislative solutions on immigration and
border security in 2022.

More specifically, the Alliance is **urging Congress**

to act this year on reforms that will boost security and compassion at
our borders, as well as provide permanent protections for Dreamers,
agricultural workers, and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders.

The time for action on immigration is now. Even President Biden **made
mention**
of the need for reforms during his address by stating that "if we are to
advance liberty and justice, we need to secure the Border and fix the
immigration system."

**Action Center**

We've been hard at work calling on Congress to take long overdue
action to pass much needed immigration reforms. You can join us by
contacting Congress **here**
.

Additionally, you can **make a gift**

of any amount to support our growing efforts.
