“We thank Congresswoman Sylvia Garcia (D-TX) for leading Democrats in the House of Representatives in re-introducing this important legislation to create an earned path to citizenship for millions of DACA recipients, eligible Dreamers, TPS holders and DED recipients.
“While Congress previously failed to pass this commonsense effort to recognize the vital contributions of millions of immigrants across the country when the immediate legislative path was more promising, we remain committed to fighting with the same vigor and determination for this and any proposal that seeks a more humane and principled approach to our nation’s immigration system.
“As the lives of undocumented individuals continue to be tossed around from court case to court case, only Congress can provide permanent relief to millions of DACA and TPS recipients – and the vast majority of American citizens who stand with them.” |
