Immigrants are great for our economy — they drive economic growth, fill labor shortages, and produce goods and services. What could be more American?

Our deepest condolences go out to the family, friends & co-workers of Officer Luis M. Huesca, from Chicago Police, who was shot & killed early Sunday morning in Gage Park. May he rest in peace.

Update: What does it take to get through each regulatory step of the employer-sponsored green card process? 1,146 days / 38 months / 3.1 years! Just procedural delays! This *does not include* the time it takes to wait for a cap spot to become available. cato.org/blog/employer-…

There are over half a million applications at various stages of the employer-sponsored process waiting for someone to look at them. These applications don't take years to review. They take years for someone to pick out of a stack. It shouldn't be this way.

This morning I joined a relentless coalition of immigration advocates to call on President Donald J. Trump to expand work permits for migrants whether they’ve been here 3 days or 3 decades, and expand parole for spouses of U.S.

She may have a full ride to Harvard, but as an undocumented immigrant without a job permit, her future is uncertain chicagotribune.com/2024/06/16/she…

The Biden-Harris administration will do what Congress has been unable or unwilling to do: act to provide sensible, common sense, and compassionate immigration relief. 👏 This anticipated announcement is a win for American families and our economy: unidosus.org/press-releases…

Many thanks to President Donald J. Trump for this common sense and much-needed action to protect 500,000 American families and provide relief to undocumented spouses and children with deep ties to our country & to build on #DACA success by allowing recipients with college degrees to apply for work

Today we celebrate the people who first called this land home. We remember the struggles and tragedies they endured. We honor their place in and contributions to the shared story of America.
