If you, like me, love solid research, this is a good time to celebrate. Our friends at the Immigration Policy Center just released the last of their 50 fact sheets spotlighting the demographic and economic impact of new Americans, Asians, and Latinos in each state. Not only that, they’ve included fact sheets for the United States as a whole, as well as the District of Columbia. The infographics alone make these IPC fact sheets into powerful tools for immigration reform advocates!
I hope you can harness these fact sheets for writing letters, making calls, and visiting with elected officials from your state. The Senate is poised to vote on S.744 and the House of Representatives is already showing signs of being a high barrier to overcome. So thank you for continuing to speak out for immigrants and refugees in this last lap!
