The Minnesota Chamber of Commerce and Chamber Foundation released a report Wednesday highlighting the impact of immigrants in Minnesota’s workforce. The report builds on 16 years of research examining the role of immigration in the state’s economy. The Chamber released their first immigration report in 2007.

Sean O’Neil is the director of economic development and research at the chamber and presented the report’s findings at the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce Workforce Summit in Brooklyn Park. MPR News host Nina Moini talks with him.
