Washington, D.C. – “President Obama’s speech in El Paso today touched on the realization of the American dream. As a child of migrant farm workers, I have seen firsthand that they contribute immensely to the growth and prosperity of our country.
Democrats have worked to toughen border security through the addition of thousands of Border Patrol agents and surveillance of unmanned aerial vehicles on the southwest border. We must now consider comprehensive immigration reform that keeps our nation safe and provides a path to legalization for those with a serious interest in adding to the future economic growth of our country. Many only need the opportunity to arrive on our shores to pursue their own American dreams.”
