KEY PLAYERS

The list of Key Players and their Profiles were updated as of March 1, 2025. Ideaspace feels the contextual, thematic and individual data presented here will remain valuable even when the prospects for bipartisan congressional action on immigration are slender.

Here are the opinion leaders chosen by Ideaspace as Key Players in the U.S. immigration policy debate. We believe these are the individuals with the most power to reach and sway large or otherwise consequential audiences with their ideas and actions in the immigration policy sphere.

Key Players on the political left and on the right, are each arranged in their respective column with the most centrist near the top and those whose views are farthest from the center at the bottom. Each profile provides a brief biography of the Key Player and a summary of his or her ideas on U.S. immigration policy. 

The Ideaspace staff assessed each Key Player’s public record as we made difficult decisions about where to position each individual. If you think we have mispositioned anyone, please contact us with your thoughts on what placement would be more accurate and fair.
