The Trump administration’s cruel assaults against immigration and the rule of law have been turbocharged by congressional Republicans’ recently passed reconciliation bill—the One Big Beautiful Bill Act—gifting the administration dramatically increased funding to further weaponize their harmful immigration agenda. In the face of the Trump administration’s brazen abuse of power and defiance of the rule of law, CAP has called for Congress to both ensure vigorous oversight of the executive branch and modernize America’s outdated immigration laws to better serve the national interest.

 

Rep. Escobar is a leading voice on immigration and the lead sponsor of the bipartisan Dignity Act, which seeks to enhance border security while creating an immigration system that works better for the country. Rep. Suozzi is a committed leader advocating for bipartisan, common sense immigration policies that are tough on security without forgetting our humanity. Rep. Leger Fernández is a leader in fighting for rational and humane immigration policies including responsibly managing and securing the border, a path to citizenship, preserving educational access for children, and strengthening access to rural healthcare.

 

Please join CAP for this much-needed discussion on how we can fix the broken immigration system to benefit all Americans—without the cruelty of the Trump administration.
