WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Joe Biden emphasized the need for border and immigration solutions in his State of the Union remarks this evening.
“We’re encouraged that the president highlighted the current border challenges and the need for immigration reforms,” said Jennie Murray, President and CEO of the National Immigration Forum.
“Now more than ever, our country needs the president and Congress to address immigration reforms and pave the way for practical solutions that make America safe, strong and welcoming. We need Congress to take the president up on his offer, when he said, ‘let’s fix it.’”
The Forum has said it before: Americans want leaders who address immigration issues and offer solutions. Early this week, the Forum introduced “A Better Way Forward: 2024 Immigration Principles.” We hope that these principles can direct leaders working for an orderly, secure and humane immigration system.
