Election night: what it means for immigration

By Jeremy Beck

Immigration didn’t decide Tuesday’s midterms, but the midterms could decide a lot about immigration. With a historically quiet border, immigration was not the top issue for most voters. The national exit poll, reported by NBC and CNN, put immigration a distant third behind the economy and democracy. Only 3% of Democratic voters named immigration the … Continued

Immigration policy wasn’t a decisive issue in the 2026 midterm election tonight, but the election could have a significant impact on immigration policy.

Newsletter: Booker T. Washington vs. the Dignity Act

By Jeremy Beck

The immigration surge from 2021-2025 was the largest in U.S. history, doubling down on a broken promise that Washington, D.C. has left unacknowledged and unaddressed for sixty years. Voters decisively backed immigration reductions in the 2024 elections. The Dignity Act flies in the face of that mandate. We have an alternative vision.
