Our outdated immigration system is hurting families and holding back America’s economy.
I'm introducing legislation to update the registry date for the first time in over 35 years, so immigrants who've lived in the U.S. for yrs can stay and keep making our communities stronger.
Valentine's Day was chosen for the protest to highlight the importance of immigrant labor in America's economy. “All of us are essential; it can’t be that we are essential but also deportable,” said Maria Alejandra Ponciano, one of the organizers for the campaign
Undocumented immigrant families have risked their lives and safety as essential workers. They can't be essential and continue to be deportable.
It's time we all stand with immigrants.
@SenatorMenendez@SenSchumer@SenatorDurbin@SenCortezMasto@SenatorLujan@SenAlexPadilla As a 🇺🇸 citizen. I am MIND BLOWN by the Parliamentarians ruling. We ARE literally BLEEDING BILLION$ every MINUTE undocumented immigrants stay in Hiding. They need to be brought out. Pay the FINES & TAXES that they are WILLING to pay & continue to contribute to this great country!
@PabloReports I can’t help but say it’s Democrat’s fault. Who does sh1t like that? Plan A,B,C… is this a joke? No well intentions -> no conviction -> no action. To dems - Just get something passed, some momentum, so we know you guys are not full of gas.
