Immigration Policy That Works: Bringing Foreign-Born Workers into High-Shortage Occupations to Grow Our Economy

  • Publication Date:

Yet immigration holds the potential of filling jobs that currently go vacant—thereby expanding production and creating more jobs for all.

By moving toward a more employment-based approach to immigration policy, the United States could stimulate greater economic growth and better meet the needs of all our citizens.
