On Monday, April 19, 2021, RSF together with the Hauser Policy Impact Fund and the Carnegie Corporation of New York cosponsored a webinar on “Revisiting Immigration in the United States.” The webinar discussion centered on findings from two seminal reports on immigration from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine: The Integration of Immigrants into American Society and The Economic and Fiscal Consequences of Immigration. RSF provided partial funding for the NAS report on immigrant integration. The webinar featured seven immigration and policy experts in discussion about how research can inform the debates on immigration policy, including RSF trustee Michael Jones-Correa (University of Pennsylvania), co-author of the recent RSF book Holding Fast: Resilience and Civic Engagement among Latino Immigrants;  former RSF trustee Mary C. Waters (Harvard University), one of the editors of the report on immigrant integration; and RSF grantee, author, and former visiting scholar Douglas Massey (Princeton University).
