Immigration reform and refugee resettlement play out locally. When federal leadership stalls, individual states have the opportunity to step forward and ensure they welcome immigrant and refugee residents with bold, innovative policies. 

With state legislatures back in session, elected officials and advocates are doing just that. 

Join the American Immigration Council and the Refugee Advocacy Lab on Thursday, February 2 for a webinar on the forward-looking policies making their way through state legislatures from Oregon to Virginia.

During the webinar, we will:

• Discuss state policy agendas that help immigrants and refugees thrive. 
   
• Share opportunities for new bills in 2023, including an overview of the Refugee Advocacy Lab’s Policy & Advocacy Guide and partnership opportunities with the Council. 
   
• Hear from Oregon State Senator Kayse Jama and Virginia Delegate Kathy Tran on best practices for advancing legislation in challenging political climates. 

We hope you can join us for this important discussion. Space is limited—register today.
