John,
We are just hours from a historic election that will determine our newest elected officials, from within our communities to the halls of Congress. (Haven’t placed your vote yet? Find your polling place here.)
No matter who is elected on Tuesday, one thing is abundantly clear: Congress must act swiftly to pass immigration reforms. The last time expansive immigration reform was passed by Congress and enacted was in 1986 – more than 35 years ago. There is overwhelming support for legislation that would address key components of our broken immigration system – providing a permanent solution for Dreamers and TPS holders, modernizing our agricultural workforce, and enacting secure, humane, and sensible border solutions.
Now more than ever, it’s clear that Congress should take long-overdue action to pass needed immigration reforms and work with administration officials to improve border management with solutions that are secure, orderly, and humane. That’s why next week, we’re taking action all week long to urge our representatives in Washington, D.C. to pass long-overdue incremental reforms.
See you next week,
Becka Wall Vice President of Digital Communications National Immigration Forum
