The American Immigration Council invites you to celebrate the remarkable accomplishments of immigrants from around the country at an inspiring and thought-provoking ceremony at the Hyatt Regency Capitol Hill on March 29, 2012.
This year marks our 17th Annual Washington, DC Immigrant Achievement Awards and we are excited to announce that we will be honoring immigrants who have contributed to our nation with their innovative and entrepreneurial accomplishments.

This country was built by immigrants, it will continue to attract and need immigrants. Some people think there are enough people here now -- people have been saying this since the 1700s and it still is not true. They are needed to make up for our aging population and low birthrate. Immigrants often are entrepreneurs, creating jobs. We must help them become Americans and not just people who live here and think of themselves as visitors. When immigrants succeed here, the whole country benefits.
