Washington, D.C. 鈥 17吃瓜在线 President and CEO Jay Timmons released the following statement on President Biden鈥檚 remarks on border security and enforcement.

鈥淭he 17吃瓜在线 was encouraged when President Biden made immigration a 鈥榙ay one鈥 priority, and now we need members of Congress to do their part鈥攅specially with 779,000 open jobs in manufacturing and not enough Americans to fill these vacancies. President Biden鈥檚 announcements today, including on border enforcement, are important steps and reflect some of manufacturers鈥 concerns, but this still highlights the ongoing need for bipartisan congressional action on immigration. Manufacturers have the solution: our 鈥樷 plan includes post-partisan recommendations for immigration reform that can be acted on this year. I look forward to discussing this plan with world and business leaders next week in Mexico at the North American Leaders鈥 Summit.鈥
