The Impact of Illegal Immigration on State and Local Governments
Source: Immigration Report
FAIRs highly successful series of regional immigration reform conferences is coming to Missouri. State and local law enforcement, and elected officials from across the region will gather in Kansas City on Saturday, March 25, for an all-day conference to identify the problems and prepare strategies for confronting the challenges of uncontrolled illegal immigration.
This conference will feature presentations from prominent national experts on immigration including Professor Vernon Briggs of Cornell University, Professor Kris Kobach of the University of Missouri Law School, Michael Hethmon of the Immigration Reform Law Institute, Jared Lewis, a national gang expert and Steven Camarota, the Director of Research for the Center for Immigration Studies. Also invited, but not yet confirmed are representatives from Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Topics to be discussed include:
Wage and job displacement of American workers
In-state tuition for illegal alien students
City sanctuary policies
Gang violence
Local law enforcement officer training
Health care, welfare and education
The conference will take place on March 25 from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm at the Hyatt Regency Crown Center, located at 2345 McGee Street in Kansas City, Missouri. The $85 fee includes conference materials, and breakfast and lunch. For those traveling from out of town, special room rates are available at the Hyatt for $125 per night by calling the hotels reservation desk at 1-800-233-1234.
