Friend,

On Thursday I introduced the bicameral U.S. Citizenship Act
of 2021, a bill that will help us reimagine immigration in this
county, a 30 year long awaited update.

When President Biden took office, he made a commitment to
not only roll back the cruel and inhumane immigration practices
led by the Trump administration, but to help rethink our
policies. Awful policies like brutally separating families at the
border and mass deportations, in favor of an immigration system
with dignity at its core.

As the daughter of Jamaican immigrants, I know what happens
when people come in search of a better life and how that life can
not only change a community but also our economy. Those seeking
citizenship have so much to offer our nation, and even in the
face of the Trump administration, they’ve remained hopeful.

That’s why I introduced a bill that believes the
immigration process should be orderly, fair, and just.

The bicameral U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021 will provide
millions of hardworking, undocumented immigrants with a pathway
to earned citizenship, including Dreamers and Temporary
Protective Status (TPS) recipients. But it will also create a
pathway for essential workers who have made enormous sacrifices
during the pandemic.

When the COVID-19 pandemic began, essential workers
continued to risk their lives during this crisis so that our
communities would continue to function. We owe these brave
workers a clear path towards citizenship for the work they’ve
done and continue to do for our nation.

Only Congress can help the 11 million undocumented
immigrants gain a path towards citizenship, and as the chair of
the Congressional Black Caucus’s immigration task force, we see a
clear way there.

Together we can help reimagine the immigration policies of
this country, and I believe that with cooperation and the help of
the Biden administration, we can be the change we wish to see.

As always, I will continue to work for you.
