Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) will be featured in an Immigration Newsmaker conversation hosted by the Center for Immigration Studies on Thursday, November 17, at 8:00am EST at the Capitol Hill Club. A leader in the U.S. Congress on immigration and national security issues, Senator Cotton’s committees include the Judiciary Committee, where he serves as the Ranking Member for the Subcommittee on Criminal Justice and Counterterrorism, the Intelligence Committee, and the Armed Services Committee.

Senator Cotton argues that the United States is in the middle of a strategic competition with China and recommends an expansion of the American talent pool in advanced scientific and technological fields. The Newsmaker event will cover the immigration policies impacting the American talent pool and enabling China to direct espionage efforts at American universities. Conversation will include a discussion of needed reforms of our immigration system, as well as oversight and possible legislation in the upcoming 118th Congress.
