Immigration Policy Center Releases Updated State-by-State Fact Sheets!

The Immigration Policy Center (IPC) has released ten more states, for a total of thirty updated state-by-state fact sheets with accompanying info graphics. These fact sheets highlight the demographic and economic impact of Immigrants, Asians and Latinos in each state. The Immigration Policy Center (IPC) is the research and policy division of the American Immigration Council (AIC).

As Washington D.C. debates Comprehensive Immigration Reform, we thought that it would be an appropriate time to provide some statistics on the Immigrant population in the United States as provided by this IPC research. Once a week we will be posting a blog with information on four states at a time. This week we will highlight; Missouri, Nevada, North Dakota and Ohio.

Now that the New Immigration Reform Bill, S. 744, the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Reform Act, is finally out of the Senate Judiciary Committee and has been sent to the U.S. Senate for a vote, it is time for you to send your opinions on the bill to the Senators that represent your state. The American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) has setup a web page for you to easily find and then send a message to your specific members of congress supporting the New Immigration Reform Bill. Using your zip code or home address, they can find the name and email address of your Representatives in Congress. They have created five templates, including four issue-specific letters on business, family, due process and legalization that you can use or you can write your own message. Enter your zip code and select a message to send to your Senator.

MVP Law Group would like you at this critical time to urge your Senators to pass a workable Immigration Reform Bill. If passed by the Senate the new Immigration Reform Bill will be sent to the U.S. House of Representatives.

On May 13th, the Governor of California, Jerry Brown (D) wrote a letter to Senator Dianne Feinstein (D) supporting the Senator’s work on immigration reform. Senator Feinstein is a senior member of the Senate’s Judiciary Committee, which is working on the proposed immigration reform legislation, S. 744, the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Reform Act (Comprehensive Immigration Reform). In his letter, the Governor stated, “California is home to over 10 million immigrants, greater number than the whole population of Georgia or Michigan.” He pointed out that, “From the engineers and programmers working in Silicon Valley on H-1B visas, to the 2.9 million undocumented workers toiling mostly in the service and agricultural industries, the contributions of foreign-born Californians are fundamental to the state’s economy.”

In the letter, the Governor makes some interesting points about the need for reform. He goes further and states, “The future of all Californians depends upon the success of immigrants…” He feels that, “In order to avoid dire consequences for our state, comprehensive immigration reform must occur this year…”

MVP Law Group finds it notable that the Governor of the largest populated state in our country used the word, “dire” to describe the consequences for his state if our national immigration system is not reformed. I would like to note that California is the largest producer of agricultural products in the United States and the home of Silicon Valley.

Senator Marco Rubio, one of the republican members of the Gang of Eight is asking the public to “Help Us Improve the Bill“. His senate web site includes a page requesting citizens to make comments on the proposed immigration reform legislation, S. 744, the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Reform Act (Comprehensive Immigration Reform). This proposed bill is still in committee, so it is a great time to submit your comments.

Senator Rubio included a video that summarizes his views on immigration reform. The video points out why he thinks this legislation is so important to his constituents and overall, the America people. He states, “…I want to invite you to share your thoughts and submit your ideas below, on ways we can improve it (Comprehensive Immigration Reform).”

MVP Law Group would encourage anyone interested in the proposed immigration reform legislation to take a few minutes and provide comments and ideas on the Senator’s web page.
