John, 

I remember 1986 like it was yesterday. Not only was it my painfully awkward time as a middle-schooler but it was also the last time meaningful immigration reform was passed and enacted by Congress. 

That was 36 years ago. 

A lot has changed since then. My fashion choices have improved (barely), new technologies have changed the world, our culture is fresher, brighter. 

Shouldn’t our immigration laws have changed by now, too? (If you’re ready to make change happen, make a gift, and support our work!)

Now is a particularly critical moment for reforms to the system: The U.S. faces economic challenges and labor shortages amid a pandemic recovery; DACA recipients and their employers continue to face an uncertain future; and challenges at the border demand more orderly, humane solutions. 

That’s why we’re expanding our work to build alliances and mobilize constituencies to put pressure on Congress
to act. 

Before the quarter ends, can you make a gift today to help us reach our $15,000 goal and support our advocacy efforts?

Look, John, we are under no illusion that bipartisan bridges are easy to build. But we know there’s strong support from Americans across the political spectrum who want Congress to work together on key immigration reforms. Longtime champion, Senator Dick Durbin (D-Illinois) is working across the aisle to pass legislation for
Dreamers and other immigrants. 

The time is ripe for solutions to our broken immigration system. 

Help expand our work. Make a gift now to pave the way for change!

Thank you for your support, 

Ali Noorani 
President and CEO
