Americans Demand a Common Sense Immigration Process
Congress needs to create a common sense immigration process that recognizes the hardships and contributions of people moving here, keeps families together here in this country, and creates a clear and uncomplicated roadmap to citizenship for new Americans who aspire to be citizens.
Why is this important?
America is a nation of values founded on the idea that all men and women are created equal. We hold these truths to be self-evident that all people have rights, no matter what they look like or where they came from.
So how we treat new American immigrants reflects our commitment to the values that define us as Americans. We believe that families should stick together, that we should look out for each other, and hard work should be rewarded.
Everyone agrees that the current patchwork of immigration policies and programs is mismanaged and broken, and it breaks up families. For those currently striving for citizenship, there's often no line to get into for becoming a fully participating American.
Aspiring citizens move here for the promise of freedom and opportunity in this country, and we believe that moving to make a better life for your family is one of the best things and one of the hardest things a person can do.
That's why all Americans who love this country very much deserve a common sense immigration process, one that includes a clear and uncomplicated roadmap to citizenship for new Americans who aspire to be citizens.
