Fedora moved to the US when she was just six years old on an H4 visa. She attended elementary, middle, and high school here. She is now a senior at NC State University and Duke University and faces self-deportation. To help those like her, please visit https://t.co/Ki9hDW90gE.
The per-country quota is the single most unfair barrier in the employment-based system. Capped at around 7% per country, the law punishes high-demand nationals like Indians or Chinese by saddling them with years or decades of waiting for green cards.
In 2021, the House passed the bipartisan Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act, aiming to remove these per-country limits; it stalled in the Senate despite wide support from business and labor groups. Simply moving to a first-come, first-served system would neutralize birthplace discrimination and help the U.S. retain top-tier workers
Thousands of documented Dreamers risk "ageing out" and face deportation. They do not qualify for DACA since they hold legal status. Congress must pass #immigration reform to protect these children.

1. she is a citizen by birth

US #immigration laws are broken. It is ridiculous to make someone wait decades for a Green Card when they are already living in the US and have followed all immigration laws. Congress needs to reform outdated laws, which it has not done for 30+ years.
The administration can also easily do this for children of long term visa holders who age out.
Congress has reaffirmed the administration’s authority on this and children of long term visa holders meet both the humanitarian and significant public benefit criteria.
Muhil has lived in the U.S. for nearly 20 years, but her future in this country is uncertain because of our broken immigration laws.
“If I left the country, I don’t know when I’d be able to come back.”
Her story is just one example and a reminder that #ImmigrationFuelsGrowth.

Over 250,000 children of long-term visa holders face leaving the country. We must pass the bipartisan America’s Children Act. Take action at https://t.co/mZi9Iss9XO.
If you are wondering what you can do to make the recommendation to provide EAD/AP to those in the backlog a reality, check out the instructions and sample letters I have posted at https://t.co/dvA6nP7Nwq #ImmigrationReform#EAD#AP#VisaBacklog#USCIS#advocacy
@JoeBiden forcing legal residents and families to travel to their country of birth only to get a paper stamp, through a broken system, is not only needless and junk, it’s also inhumane. All this while keeping them in a discriminatory 200year #GreenCardBacklog#StampInAmerica
With all due respect to USCIS, this list is like telling people on the Titanic that you cleaned the deck chairs, scrubbed the floors, and shined the instruments. It is worse than a joke. We will have one last proposal soon that, if they don’t take, will show they don’t want to help people. https://t.co/bR7fI2tz2h
There was unanimous agreement at the @SenateBudget Committee immigration hearing that it makes no sense to force Laurens van Beek and those in his situation to self-deport.
