Rebecca Shi

Rebecca Shi is the founding Executive Director of the American Business Immigration Coalition, a bipartisan coalition of 1,700 employers and CEOs around the U.S., representing agriculture, healthcare, long-term care, construction, hospitality, manufacturing, technology, and more. ABIC works for common-sense immigration reform to grow the economy, create jobs, and keep families together.

Rebecca immigrated from China with her parents when she was 10 years old. Poor legal counsel resulted in her mother losing immigration status and becoming, for 19 years, an undocumented worker with a deportation order. This experience inspired Rebecca to dedicate herself to become a leader in immigrant rights.
