Simon Will Be Speaking At Beyond The Dream - Changing The Conversation About Immigration

Simon will be speaking at the following event, put on by ImmigrationWorks USA and New America Foundation.

 

BEYOND THE DREAM –
CHANGING THE CONVERSATION ABOUT IMMIGRATION

Congress has been deadlocked on immigration for almost as long as the status quo has seemed unsustainable. And every year that lawmakers delay, the costs mount: human costs, economic costs, costs to American values and to the nation's future.

But can meaningful progress be made if the same tired arguments are summoned again and again by all parties? Could we have a better, more constructive debate about immigration, one focused on the nation’s economic self-interest? Join the New America Foundation and ImmigrationWorks USA to consider the question and the broader stalemate on immigration.

WHEN    January 17, 2012 from 12:00 to 3:00

WHERE   Gallup World Headquarters
               901 F Street NW, Washington, D.C.
