“Entrepreneurs are the job creators that help drive this economy forward, but today our immigration policy turns many of them away, while other countries fight to welcome them,” said John Feinblatt, Chairman of New American Economy. “The Startup Act is the next step towards smart, necessary reform – we urge Congress to pass it now and put our economy first.”

 

The American Immigration Council works to create a more welcoming and fair immigration system.
