Greg Casar (TX-35) is a lead co-sponsor on a landmark bill introduced last week that would end the mandatory detention of migrants arriving at the US border. As Greg said, "Caging millions of immigrant families has always been wrong, and it doesn’t even help resolve the humanitarian crisis at our border. Trump demonstrated that very clearly." Greg is the unanimously-elected Congressional Progressive Caucus whip. He has deep roots in the labor movement and is the son of Mexican immigrants.

Delia Ramirez (IL-03) put forth a bill that would restore GI Bill benefits to veterans defrauded by predatory for-profit colleges.

But we can change that." Delia is the first Latina elected to Congress from the Midwest and a passionate advocate for economic justice.
