This page lists pro-immigration web resources that make explicit arguments defending immigration of one or more sort without generally opposing other forms of immigration. Most of them put their agenda upfront in their “about” sections and mission statements, though some do not do so, but are classed as pro-immigration based on other aspects of their website and materials they put out. For sources that claim to offer information, see migration information web resources. For sources with an explicit anti-immigration agenda, see anti-immigration web resources.
