Description: 

The study reports results of a multi-stakeholder task force, including key politicians and corporate and union leaders, convened to examine the importance of immigration to the Midwest. It documents how immigration helps prevent population decline, reinvigorates economic growth, and contributes to cultural diversity. It recommends a series of policy proposals to reform the U.S. immigration system, strengthen communities through an integration agenda, and provide infrastructure to implement the recommendations.
