Join us this Friday as we gather in front of Rep. Nancy Pelosi's office and urge Congress to include a pathway to citizenship for undocumented essential workers in the President's Build Back Better plan.
During the pandemic, our immigrant brothers have worked long hours in grueling jobs with very few protections and seen little justice. As essential workers, they have risked their lives for our country in the face of a virus that has killed more than half a million Americans. As human beings, they have suffered disease and death at a disproportionate rate.
For decades, undocumented Americans have been essential workers and essential human beings--community members, neighbors, friends, and family. And yet they have lived in fear, without basic rights, and without government support when times are tough.
The best Mother's Day present would be a path to citizenship for janitors, dishwashers, construction workers, nannies, grocery store workers, and care providers.
