 Immigration Who is an American? ARC believes that the the answer should not be an
"accident of birth" but a reflection reality. Millions of immigrants
make this country their home, contribute to it's wellbeing-- it's
political, social and civic fabric. However, our policies work to
criminalize and demonize immigrant communities, separate families and
exploit labor. To build a United States that values all Americans, we
need immigration laws that protect people rather than attack them.
