Astroturf Ads Demonize Legal Immigration

Posted by on

A Fair Chance at Jobs Campaign has been blanketing Ohio and other states with ads pitting legal immigrants against the native-born unemployed. 

The campaign only admits to links to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (the "bad" FAIR) which provides no disclosure of individual or institutional supporters on its website at  fairchanceatjobs.com. The main Federation for American Immigration Reform website at www.fairus.org  posts annual reports as well as 990 forms, but redacts donor/supporter names for the 5 million in grants and $958,000 in contributions recorded.
