The United States needs a visa policy that promotes economic growth, builds strong alliances with American’s friends and allies, and contributes to the safety and security of the nation. Such a policy would encourage exchanges that strengthen democracy and free markets as well as strengthens U.S. strategic partnerships with countries around the world. Yet many nations, that have become critical friends and allies over the past several years, have been excluded from this program. Join us as our panelists discuss how to improve U.S. visa policy to strengthen our public diplomacy.
