So DACA is still alive, but not safe. Good news, but not great news. Thanks Ellen for getting this thread.

The Biden administration seeks to place #DACA on firmer legal footing. #DreamAct #DreamActNow https://t.co/RYtIavsP04

"In May, Bajpai along with other youth advocates took their fight to Washington D.C. to speak to Congress and shed light on the bill they believe is the best solution to the many hardships that come with being a documented dreamer." #ImproveTheDream

Big news on TPS. Travel with a new TPS travel document will be considered a lawful admission for adjustment of status purposes. A lot of people now have a path to a green card. https://t.co/EGo0iFsdDC

@ABishopGustavo Better immigration laws. If we were “pro-life” enough they wouldn’t have to hide to enter.. they would have find us the Church where they know they would be protected, loved and cared for… some Catholics dislike catholic charities for helping immigrants.

@anydoubleyou Congratulations! It's been wonderful to watch your journey.

[Greg Siskind @gsiskind]

Congrats @USCIS. You denied our DACA client an expedite on an advance parole document to visit a terminally ill grandparent & then denied an expedite to go to the funeral because it's no longer an emergency.

The House language will dramatically reduce green card backlogs if not eliminate them entirely for FAMILY, EMPLOYMENT and DV. Let your members of Congress know this language MUST remain in the legislation.

[David J. Bier @David_J_Bier]

Biden's reconciliation plan still includes "reducing backlogs" in the immigration system. How will Congress interpret this and will the parliamentarian accept whatever it comes up with? https://t.co/yifeinpFDR

The Biden administration Monday morning took steps to save the Obama-era DACA program that shields hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants brought to the US as children from deportation.

Grijalva, a student at Northern Arizona University, came to the U.S. from Guatemala when he was just 1 year old, and has lived here ever since . . . He's a #DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipient #Olympics2021 #Olympics https://t.co/5c8q4jbbg1

@jeffjoseph @AILAExecDir @AILANational A reminder - an immigration bill has not passed in Congress which passed through its immigration committees in 17 years. A lot of people voted for Democrats in 2020 to change this. Time to step up and pass bills.

Our history of working for social justice @LoyolaHSC goes back well before becoming the 1st medical school to openly welcome #DACA applicants. #JuneTeenth2021 #jesuiteducated

@LoyolaHSD Stritch School of Medicine alum @ManuelBernalMD testifed today for the #DREAMandPromiseAct before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Great job, Dr. Bernal!!#DACA https://t.co/nZOjFxGQs8

[Greg Siskind @gsiskind]

A bipartisan bill will likely be introduced today that seeks to eliminate per country employment-based immigrant visa caps. I am SUPPORTING this bill and will advocate for it (as I have for similar bills in the past). 1

🤮🙄c’mon now Lori!!

Today I want to appreciate the work from home Wednesdays with extended prep time @CTULocal1 won for many (not all) of us. As a result, after school I had the energy to walk 2 miles, attend a PD, not yell at my children, and make myself a pretty good sandwich.

#ImmigrantsAreEssential Read what Dr. Pilar Ortega, co-founder of MOLA, Dr. Dana Rusch, professor at @uiccom, and Isa Alvarez, @UChicago alumni, have to say about prioritizing the needs of our #undocumented community regarding the #COVID19Vaccine.
