> New Report by Katherine Fennelly and Anne Huart
>
> We have all heard public and private debates regarding the costs and
> contributions of immigrants in Minnesota and in the United States, but
> too few of these conversations have been informed by facts. To rectify
> this, the Minnesota Business Immigrant Coalition asked Katherine
> Fennelly and Anne Huart to review and synthesize the best, unbiased
> research on this contentious issue. The result is in the enclosed
> report. Please feel free to share it with others. One of the links is
> to the full color report; the second is to a printable version with
> less
> color. If you would like to order full-color print copies at $15 each,
