Comprehensive Immigration Reform: A Time for Congress to Act

Comprehensive Immigration Reform: A Time for Congress to Act

The Issue

President Obama and members of Congress have promised to support and address immigration reform.  We urge the House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and the Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to take leadership in working for a comprehensive immigration reform bill. We urge our leaders to create a new law to solve outstanding issues including the status of workers in the US who need to have avenues to adjust their status to legal presence.  Our country needs a viable path to legalization for workers and families who have played an important role in the US economy for years.  With our current immigration system, families continue to be torn apart because of these issues.
