Today, the University of Denver released its year-long report on immigration.Read the report
Over the past year, the University of Denver Strategic Issues Program brought together a nonpartisan panel of business, civic and academic leaders to study the issue in depth and develop recommendations. Panel members received some 30 presentations from individuals in academia, government, business, labor, law enforcement, education, health care and other fields.
Watch videos of speaker presentations
The result is the report: Architecture for Immigration Reform: Fitting the Pieces of
Public Policy. The report is comprehensive and specific. It contains 25 recommendations dealing with basic reform of the immigration system, illegal immigration, employment verification, use of national identification cards, English language proficiency, borderenforcement, visa simplification, family unification and many other topics.
As you read this report, you will find that in spite of the many dimensions of the issue and
the disparate perspectives brought to the table by the panel members, a thoughtful, factbased
approach did indeed bring consensus.
We hope that the work of the panel and the ideas presented in this report will stimulate similarly civil, thoughtful, fact-based debate among the public at large and its representatives in government, such that this broader conversation might lead to a consensus for action.
