December 7, 2022 Dear John, On behalf of all of us at MPI, I want to express my gratitude for your support and engagement with our work. This year has been consequential in so many ways on the immigration front—the rapid stand-up of programs to receive and settle displaced Ukrainians and Venezuelans, record arrivals at the U.S.-Mexico border, court rulings on DACA and Title 42, unmet employer needs for workers, increasingly muscular state actions, and countless other developments. Across these and many other issue areas, MPI has worked to be an essential voice of pragmatism and reason—shining light, not heat, on the complex questions that the country confronts. We work tirelessly to offer sensible solutions by developing and sharing useful data, evidence-informed analysis, and workable policy ideas that can help make migration and protection systems meet the ever-evolving challenges they face. Our impact in 2022 has been tangible. The Biden administration this year began implementing our proposal to reform the processing of border asylum cases for the benefit of asylum seekers and the U.S. immigration system overall. We have been a leading voice in fostering the proposition that the United States and other countries in the Americas must work together to manage increasingly hemispheric migration flows. And through our Rethinking U.S. Immigration Policy initiative, we are laying down new concepts and policy markers for updating the U.S. immigration system in practical ways. In this highly polarized era, MPI remains deeply committed to being a resolutely nonpartisan, independent voice that generates well thought-out immigration and integration policies that advance the interests of all elements of society, immigrant and native born alike. As you make your year-end giving decisions, would you consider supporting us? |
