AILF's newest initiative, the Immigration Policy Center is a "think tank" dedicated to research and analysis about the contributions made to America by immigrants. The IPC publishes short biweekly policy briefs on topics such as immigrants in the military, as well as longer more in depth policy reports bimonthly on topics such as the importance of Mexican workers to America's economy and the United States' ability to compete in the global battle for workers who will allow America to remain economically competitive in the years ahead.

The IPC also works to disseminate its studies and papers to a broad audience of both national policymakers and media and local opinion leaders in cities throughout the country. Congressional briefings, press conferences, and symposia are also used to present AILF's findings to the public.
