The Urban Institute
The Urban Institute made 8 filings covering 8 positions in this release. Across them it filed wages of a median of $62,115 a year.
Green-card sponsorship
The Urban Institute has filed no permanent labour certifications in this release. That is the first step of an employment-based green card, so on this data there is no sign it sponsors one — though a release covers a fiscal year, and an employer that sponsored earlier would not appear here.

A wage is shown against the prevailing wage for the library year the filing itself cites, not the year current today — measured against the wrong year, a correctly-filed wage reads as underpaid.
