, as people across the country wrap up their taxes for the
year, we are thinking of the millions of undocumented immigrants and their
households who are also paying hundreds of billions of dollars in federal, state, and local taxes nationwide.
Despite being an integral part of our families and communities, and contributing
to our society and economy, undocumented immigrants still do not have a pathway
to citizenship. This excludes them from accessing federal support, including
vital health care, childcare benefits, and COVID-19 relief. Low-income immigrants experience this injustice especially hard.
This approach is both inequitable and misguided. Creating a pathway to
citizenship for undocumented immigrants would create an estimated 430,000 new
jobs and boost the U.S.' GDP by $1.7 trillion (Source: Center for American Progress

and economically right thing and create a pathway to citizenship for all.
, urge your elected officials to recognize the humanity
and dignity of immigrants regardless of status and finally deliver a pathway to
citizenship >>>

TAKE ACTION
[[link removed]]Immigrants are essential to who we are as a nation and the 11 million aspiring
citizens also enrich our country in so many ways and will continue to make a
meaningful impact for generations to come. We call on our government to give
undocumented immigrants the recognition that is long overdue.
Join me in demanding a pathway to citizenship for all undocumented immigrants
