John, as Republicans continue to introduce inhumane anti-refugee legislation in the Homeland Security Committee, I wanted to explain why comprehensive, humane immigration reform means so much to me.
But I know it's Sunday, so it would be quicker to just show you why I fight so hard- |
This is my mother, Maria. She crossed the border while pregnant with me, almost losing her life in the process. |
This is my husband, Boris. He came to the US when he was just 14-years-old, and worked his hardest to help his family make ends meet. |
As the only member of Congress coming from a mixed-status household, I'm fighting for all the other Marias and all the other Borises who just want a better life for themselves and their families. |
Thank you, Congresswoman Delia Ramirez |
