On Thursday, the hotel industry launched the Workforce & Immigration Initiative to emphasize the need for Congress to support the U.S. workforce and economy through bipartisan solutions to fix our nation’s broken immigration system, as reported in Hotel Business, Hotel Management, and Travel Daily News, among others. This comes as discussions on immigration reform in Congress ramp up before the end of the year and nearly all hotels are experiencing staffing shortages. Hotels are looking to fill many of the jobs lost during the pandemic, including more than 105,000 hotel jobs currently open across the nation.
