Hispanic Duo Introduce Bipartisan Immigration Bill

“A bipartisan duo of Hispanic women are introducing the most robust immigration proposal to date this Congress, a significant collaboration as a new generation of lawmakers pushes for meaningful reform of the nation’s immigration system after decades of failed attempts,” the Washington Post reports.

“For six months, Reps. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) and Veronica Escobar (D-TX) have been quietly negotiating on key issues where Republican and Democrats have previously sought changes, while leaning on their lived experiences as lawmakers representing border districts with majority Hispanic constituencies.”
