Attend this session and be informed of what the 113th congress has planned with regard to immigration reform. 

As leaders in Washington work on immigration legislation and implement agency policies, the stakes are high for HR professionals. Sensible, efficient immigration policies can help you hire the skilled workers required to meet your organization’s needs and build America’s workforce. This panel’s discussion will focus on hearing from HR professionals about whether proposed immigration reforms and regulations help or hinder their ability to access and retain key foreign talent and how ACIP and SHRM can best convey any needed changes to leaders in Washington. The panel includes speakers from the American Council on International Personnel (ACIP), SHRM’s strategic affiliate focused on advancing global mobility, as well as HR professionals that deal with high volumes of immigration cases.
