It's time Congress passes a roadmap to citizenship for the 11 million immigrants living in the United States without papers.
Why is this important?
People move to make life better for themselves and their families. Most families moved here in the past for the same reason that American immigrants move here today - to raise a family in a land of freedom and opportunity.
But the current patchwork of policies and programs is mismanaged and broken, and it breaks up families.
In order to do our part to welcome newcomers, we need to make America the most attractive place for the best, brightest, and hardest working people from around the world.
That’s why America deserves a common sense immigration process, one that includes a roadmap to citizenship for the 11 million undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States.
