Message from CRA President + CEO Jot Condie on heightened immigration enforcement

“We cannot overstate the vital contributions immigrants provide our state. They are the lifeblood of our industry. The restaurant community has been rattled this week by increasingly disruptive immigration enforcement activities that strike fear in immigrant families regardless of their status. Immigrants power our workforce and have an enormous positive impact on our economy. We would not be the 4th largest economy in the world without them. We will continue our efforts with our National Restaurant Association partners to secure critical federal immigration reform.”
