The National Immigration Forum (also called "The Forum") is an immigrant rights organization based in Washington, DC that publishes studies, lobbies congress members, and networks local organizations with the goal of increasing public support for admitting larger numbers of immigrants and refugees into the United States. It was established in 1982. With a slightly moderate rhetoric, the Forum is one of the main DC and national multi-constituency immigrant rights groups alongside Campaign for Comprehensive Immigration Reform, Fair Immigration Reform Movement of CCC and the We Are America Alliance.
