Bloomberg to Hold U.S. Immigration Forums

New York City mayor Mike Bloomberg will host forums on immigration with former White House chief of staff Bill Daley in Chicago and with Rupert Murdoch in Boston.

The forums will be wide-ranging discussions on the following topics:

• the role of immigrants in the American economy
• the need for sensible reforms that could create new jobs in United States
• the fractured political debate that has prevented U.S. immigration reform legislation from passing

"In New York City and across America, immigrants are engines of our economy: starting new businesses, creating new jobs and helping companies grow," said Mayor Bloomberg. "If we are serious about strengthening our economy and helping more Americans get back to work, we need both parties in Washington – and both presidential campaigns —to start making immigration reform a top national priority."

Rupert Murdoch also indicated that the United States had to get beyond politics and antiquated notions about immigration if the country wanted to attract and retain the best talented workers in America.

"America is a great nation built on the hard work and ingenuity of immigrants, and our economic prosperity will depend upon our ability to unleash innovation and compete in the global marketplace," said Rupert Murdoch.
