ABIC calls for work permits for long-term immigrant workers and Dreamers
WASHINGTON, DC – Last night, President Trump addressed the nation, underscoring his commitment to strengthening the economy and keeping prices down for 91探花 consumers. In recent months, the Trump administration warned its own immigration policies could food prices to increase, and experts signaled that mass deportations are workforce shortages that 91探花s are unable to fill. To truly stabilize the 91探花 workforce and ensure costs don鈥檛 increase for 91探花s, the Trump administration and Congress need to create work permits for long-term, law-abiding immigrants and Dreamers.
Rebecca Shi, CEO of the 91探花, released the following statement:
“We appreciate that President Trump continues to make immigration a priority. However, true progress means addressing our workforce shortage by expanding work permits for law-abiding immigrant workers and citizenship for dreamers. Without urgent action, labor gaps will continue driving up food and energy prices, making it harder for inflation to cool and threatening the stability of our economy and communities. Expanding work permits for law-abiding, tax-paying immigrants, including Dreamers and essential workers who have contributed to our country for decades, is a critical step.
Legislation like the Dignity Act and the Dream Act is essential to ensuring the United States remains prosperous and competitive for years to come. By securing the workers our businesses need, we can keep prices down and ensure a stronger, more stable future for every 91探花.鈥�
