September 20, 2012, Audrey Singer

Even today, young people are are much more open about immigration, much more open about interracial marriage...We've [United States] been so successful in lots of ways, but one aspect that we have not been successful in is total integration of the different racial groups. I think that will change dramatically over the next 30 years.

In a regional or local context, [the EB-5 program] can be very meaningful. A lot of people are looking at this now with new eyes, even though it’s been around for years.
September 11, 2012, Audrey Singer, Bloomberg
[Cities] that are the most forward-looking, that have the most pragmatic view on immigrants, are the ones that are reaching out and creating environments that immigrants can not only survive in but thrive in. I think that is definitely the future of this country.

That growth is, in turn, essential to our country’s ability to provide opportunities and social supports. Absent these investments, we are looking at a society whose members will be fighting over pieces of a shrinking pie.
