Marco Rubio: Please support a pathway to citizenship so immigrant families will not be torn apart!
We need to create an immediate pathway to citizenship for hard-working, law-abiding immigrant families who are valuable and productive members of our society. This should be the priority over increased border militarization. Tearing apart families who strive to work, pay taxes, and attend school in the United States is un-American.
Why is this important?
We need a pathway to citizenship for the 11 million immigrants already living in the United States. Senator Rubio is playing a key leadership role in drafting the bill for immigration reform, so we are asking him to commit to keeping families together and put aspiring Americans on the road to citizenship.

I am 33 years old and a mother of three, and it is frustrating not being able to go with my children on field trips and participate in school activities due to the lack of a Social Security number. My children and their education are my top priorities. Immigration reform is needed so I can help my kids achieve their goals. They are DREAMers; I myself am a DREAMer!"
