Project Title

For a conservative outreach project on immigration

Date

Jun. 09, 2016

Duration

18 months

Description

In recent years, immigration reform advocates have formed alliances with conservative leaders from a variety of backgrounds, including those from the faith, law enforcement, business, and military communities. These alliances have proven to be effective in broadening support for reform to include conservative constituencies that are not as receptive to traditional immigration reform advocates. Linda Chavez, who formerly served as Staff Director of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights under President Reagan, is one such leader who has earned the respect of conservatives and has continually argued for immigration reform. In 2016, Chavez will continue to serve as Distinguished Fellow in Immigration Policy at Colorado Christian University’s Centennial Institute. In that role, and with Corporation support, Chavez will use op-eds, appearances in major radio and television media outlets, public debates, and social media to engage conservatives in the immigration debate and make the case for immigrant integration.
