New Immigrants Drive Economic Growth in New Jersey
Newly arriving immigrants make significant contributions to New Jersey’s economy through their labor, entrepreneurial endeavors, and tax contributions.
The gateway to the United States, New Jersey is home to one of the highest shares of immigrant residents in the nation. Immigrants are our neighbors, coworkers, classmates, and community leaders. New Jersey’s long-term success is inextricably linked to the success of its immigrants, regardless of their documentation status. Public policy must reflect this reality.
