Welcome to our new Migration Data Hub newsletter!

Much of our analysis at the Migration Policy Institute (MPI) is underpinned by data about migration. That is why we are thrilled to be launching this quarterly newsletter to keep you informed about the latest statistical updates from authoritative government sources and insights from MPI's own data-rich publications, charts, and figures about migration in the United States and globally.

This first edition of the newsletter is being sent to all MPI supporters. If you like what you see, please subscribe to receive future editions, free of charge, four times per year.

If this newsletter resonates with you, please share it with your networks so other smart and curious readers can join us.

And, of course, we hope you will turn to (and bookmark!) our Migration Data Hub, which is a great repository for reputable data on international migration at global and U.S. levels, and our Immigration Data Matters guide, which shortcuts users to more than 250 U.S. and international data resources around the globe, organized by topic.
