Naturalization and Integration: Repairing our Broken Immigration System

By immigrationprof

Today, the Immigration Policy Center (IPC) releases the next in the series of “Solutions Papers,” titled Naturalization and Integration: Repairing our Broken Immigration System. Most Americans want immigrants to fully integrate in the U.S., and most immigrants want to be Americans and fully participate in social and civic life. We can expect naturalization and integration programs to be an important part of comprehensive immigration reform. Questions of naturalization and integration are unique within the comprehensive immigration reform debate because the issues involved are less about reforming existing law and more about generating support for sufficient planning and resources to create a more robust integration program. This paper lays out the key principles for naturalization and integration within the context of comprehensive immigration reform.
