Tagged: , , ,

“State policy must be more welcoming to immigrants if Iowa and two other Midwest states are to thrive economically, a trio of experts said Tuesday.

“We need people in Iowa, and we need them now,” said Mark Grey, director of the Iowa Center for Immigrant Leadership and Integration and a professor at the University of Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls.

Grey joined with colleagues from Minnesota and Nebraska to write a report, “Immigration’s New Frontiers: Experiences from the Emerging Gateway States,” sponsored by the Century Foundation, a think tank based in New York City. Davenport native Jim Leach, longtime congressional representative, is a foundation director.”
