President Biden told the group, according to one source, that $1.9 to $2.2 trillion was the range he felt Sens. Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema would accept, but did not specify further within that range. https://t.co/O2p73hRNOF
No matter what time of day it is—#ImmigrantsAreEssential.
No matter where you are in the US—immigrants keep this country going.
No matter what happens—we won't stop fighting for immigrants.
This is Congress' moment to finally protect our communities w/ a pathway to citizenship.
❗ACTION ALERT: Hundreds of immigrants and allies will share their stories outside the White House on October 7 on why we need to pass immigration reform. See you there!

Thank you @votejgr and dozens of other New York lawmakers for urging Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to secure a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants via budget reconciliation. #WeAreHome

TAKE ACTION: The House and Senate are negotiating legislative text for budget reconciliation, and they need to know that their constituents support immigration reforms through budget reconciliation and oppose anti-immigrant amendments that may be offered. https://t.co/3YAAiqQDjn
NEW: While @KyrstenSinema has been meeting with big donors and corporate lobbyists, she has refused to meet with Progressive Caucus leader @RoKhanna and other lawmakers about the reconciliation bill as she threatens to kill the legislation.

Senate Republicans planning to offer an olive branch of sorts to Democrats that could alleviate Washington's biggest problem: an impending calamitous default: https://t.co/HQhFAdrKqS
The US Diversity Immigrant Visa Program has opened for the fiscal year 2023, but the Irish will most likely receive just 0.05% of the 55k visas up for grabs. #GreenCard#DiversityVisa#Immigration https://t.co/NDLgHHnRGJ
What are we fighting for in the Build Back Better Act?
🤰🏾 Paid leave
👶🏾 Childcare
🌱 Climate action
🩺 Health care
🏡 Affordable housing
📚 Universal pre-k and free community college
And so much more. This is popular and NECESSARY policy — and progressives will get it done.
We call upon @AILANational@blesjm1@jactioncenter@KarenTumlin@NILC or any other organisation working for immigration equity to litigate to enjoin the 4 tier prioritisation scheme for all visa classes permanently, to stop, so good people don't lose out to bad policy. #DV2022
Let me be clear: We are keeping all options open to provide protections for immigrants through budget reconciliation. This is my top priority.
And the fight is not over—it’s going to take all of us working together to get this done.
The majority of the American people support the $3.5T reconciliation bill. 48 out of 50 Democrats in the Senate support the bill. 96% of Democrats in the House support the bill.
No. Two people cannot sabotage what the overwhelming majority of this country want.
Thank you for having our Immigration Policy Associate @DaishiMT and Director of Community Engagement @tiffwchang for this critical workshop, @AAFederation! Grateful to be in this fight with you, @SEARAC, @nakasec, and @EmpoweredPI.
