Bipartisan Policy Center
Project Title
For core support of its immigration project
Date
Dec. 08, 2022
Duration
24 months
Description
In the last several decades, both Republican and Democrat majorities in government have failed to enact their respective parties’ preferred vision of comprehensive immigration reform. To develop and implement necessary fixes to the country’s immigration system, policymakers and advocates will have to rebuild alliances across ideologies, reconstruct a strategy for immigration reform based on a changed political environment, and reinvest in bipartisanship in the field of immigration. Founded in 2007, the Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC) is a public policy organization committed to fostering bipartisan coalitions and combining the best ideas of both major political parties, with the goal of improving health, security, and opportunity outcomes in the United States. With Corporation support, BPC will work to rebuild alliances on immigration reform and provide analysis and bipartisan policy recommendations to achieve permanent solutions.

Description
In the last several decades, both Republican and Democrat majorities in government have failed to enact their respective parties’ preferred vision of comprehensive immigration reform. In order to develop and implement necessary fixes to the country’s immigration system, policymakers will have to not only work across political aisles and sectors of society, but also obtain majority support from the general public. Founded in 2007, the Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC) is a public policy organization committed to fostering bipartisan coalitions and combining the best ideas of both major political parties, with the goal of improving health, security, and opportunity outcomes in the United States. With Corporation support, BPC will provide critical analysis of new and existing immigration policies and develop commonsense policy recommendations for the nation’s economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Date
Jun. 04, 2020
Duration
15 months
Description
In 2016, the United States faced unfounded charges of mass voter fraud in national elections. Although these claims were easily debunked using data and scientific analysis, they served as an important reminder that maintaining public confidence in elections is critical to preserving a strong democracy. Founded in 2007, the Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC) is a nonpartisan think tank that believes a strong, inclusive democracy is necessary to meet the country’s most pressing challenges. With Corporation support, BPC will launch a national bipartisan partnership with leading state-based election officials, former members of Congress, and leaders in civil society to educate the American public about the principles of election legitimacy. BPC will organize multiple roundtables and state-based media events to explain misunderstood electoral processes and to restore trust in electoral outcomes.
