"the Citizen’s League strongly supports education and higher education for Minnesota’s young immigrants, regardless of their immigration status. "

"The Citizens League report addresses the education of all immigrant youth. Young immigrants are crucial to Minnesota, said Kyle Uphoff, from the MN Department of Education and Economic Development. He pointed to Minnesota’s aging population, with large increases coming in the 55-and-older contingent from now through 2020. Minnesota demographic figures show that migration will become the largest source of new workers in Minnesota. In order to grow Minnesota’s economy, the state needs to better educate immigrant youth and the children of immigrants."
