How U.S. Immigration could be different



Merit-based and/or current / future labor shortages could determine immigration policy

U.S. asylum / immigration seekers could be able to go to ports of entry and more immigration judges could be hired

The U.S. (and other countries' border policies) could operate from a humanitarian framework versus deterrence

Guest worker programs could be reformed, expanded, and easier to access for immigrants and companies

Developed countries could take in more refugees / asylum seekers

People (children) could have legal representation in immigration courts

The asylum / temporary work visa process could be easier / faster at the U.S.-Mexico border

Law-abiding, tax paying, current U.S. undocumented immigrants could have paths to visas / citizenship

The Central American Minors (CAM) Program could be expanded

Community accompaniment programs or electronic monitoring could be used instead of immigration detention centers
