• The share of white people born in the US has decreased since 1990. This demographic shift has been most observable in states like California and Texas. Both states shifted from majority white, US-born to majority immigrant and US-born people of color since 1990.
• States such as California, Florida, and New York have had large increases in their immigrant populations since 1990. Comparatively, states such as Idaho and Wyoming have remained majority white and US-born. 
• The majority of Asian Americans are immigrants while the majority of Latinx people are US-born.

While the United States is often described as a nation of immigrants, attitudes toward immigrants have fluctuated over time and have consistently favored White and European-born migrants. During the first half of the 20th century, the United States relied on a national-origins system that favored Northwestern Europeans and barred Asians through explicitly racist policies. In 1965, Congress enacted policy changes meant to unite immigrant families and attract skilled labor, leading to more immigration from Asia and Latin America. These later demographic patterns remain true today. Under President Trump, however, several policy changes including increased militarization of the border and the "travel ban" against seven Muslim-majority countries have contributed to decreased immigration rates since 2008.

• Foster racial inclusion in governance.
• Build multiracial alliances, coalitions, and movements to advance policy change, including pro-immigrant policies.
• Dismantle barriers and build pathways to economic opportunity for boys and men of color.
• Include immigrants by ensuring access to health care, driver's licenses, in-state tuition, and municipal ID cards regardless of immigration status.
• Enact strong language access policies requiring interpretation and translation services for English-language learners and facilitate naturalization among green-card holders.

• Limit the participation of local law enforcement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and support community-led alternatives to policing and invest-divest strategies in communities of color.

• Strengthen democracy by increasing participation of marginalized groups, expanding voting rights (and preventing rollback), and building leadership development pipelines.
• At the federal level, eliminate the Immigration Custom Enforcement Agency and create a more accountable and humane border patrol program, close all immigration detention facilities, streamline the naturalization process and expand protections for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, Temporary Protection Status, and Deferred Enforced Departure recipients, enact all-mail elections, automatic voter registration, and extended voting periods.
