Immigration Progress Is Not Just About Better Messaging or Reducing PrejudiceMaking progress on immigration is decidedly not about coming up with better messaging strategies. It is true that people with racial biases are more likely to oppose immigration, especially immigration from culturally different groups. What This Means for Work VisasIf progress follows performance, governments should start where voters already agree: high-skill immigration. Openness to refugees and asylum seekers is the hardest test for immigration progress, because humanitarian appeals persuade few voters and because gains are easy to undermine. Immigration progress is possible when benefits are visible to ordinary citizens.
