​Iowa business leaders seek to influence immigration in 2016

Des Moines Register (Iowa)

A new group of Republican business leaders seeks to push presidential candidates toward “a realistic solution” on immigration reform, pointing toward immigration’s economic heft in the state.

The Iowa Alliance of Growth “provide a platform for these candidates to discuss their plans for reforming our broken immigration system,” according to a statement.

Jon Troen, president of Des Moines’ Mittera Group, said the “ultimate goal is to encourage GOP presidential candidates to present a thoughtful and detailed solution to fix our broken immigration laws.”


Specifically, the group hopes to push candidates to address three specific topics: securing the border, visas and guest-worker programs, and a framework allowing “the 11.5 million immigrants currently living in the U.S. illegally to come out of the shadows and get right with the law.”
