LeadingAge Wisconsin Highlights Workforce Challenges at Immigration Press Conference

Last week, VP of Media and Community Impact Kate Battiato joined business leaders from hospitality, technology, and construction at a press conference designed to highlight workforce challenges related to immigration.

The event, organized by the American Business Immigration Coalition, drew attention to the results of a recent Marquette Law School poll finding 72 percent of Americans would favor a law that would grant work permits to immigrants living illegally in the US if they have lived here for at least five years, have jobs, and have no criminal record.
