unnamed (1).png

The American Business Immigration Coalition - Intermountain Chapter is hosting virtual Intermountain immigration summit with business leaders, CEOs, university presidents, and lawmakers to push for common-sense immigration solutions that support the economy of the Intermountain states, provides companies with both the high-skilled and low-skilled talent they need, and allows the integration of immigrants into our economy as consumers, workers, entrepreneurs, and citizens. A path to legal status and citizenship for Dreamers, Agricultural workers and essential workers is supported by over 70% of American voters. Immigrants can make significant contributions in helping the Intermountain states rebuild and recover from the pandemic, while powering the region’s biggest industries including construction, agriculture, hospitality, and tourism.

We will be joined by over 200 business leaders and CEOs, University Presidents, and bipartisan lawmakers including, U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ), U.S. Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ), U.S. Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO), Governor Doug Ducey (R-AZ), Bob Worsley, Republican Arizona State Senator (Retired) and SkyMall Founder, Michael M. Crow, President of Arizona State University, Doug Pruitt, Emeritus CEO of Sundt Construction, Phil Francis, Emeritus CEO of PetSmart, Tom Kelly, Emeritus CEO of Schaller Anderson, Mike Kaplan, CEO Aspen Snowmass, Reyna Montoya, Founder, CEO, and board member of Aliento, Sol Trujillo, Executive, Founder and Chairman of Trujillo Group, Garrick Taylor, President of the Arizona Chamber of Commerce, and Neil Guiliano, President of Greater Phoenix Leadership.
