Co-Chairs Ibe and Diaz React to Introduction of U.S. Citizenship Act

We celebrate its path to citizenship for 11 million people, prioritize family reunification, and strengthen immigrant and refugee integration, but introduction is not the end of the road. Congress must pass it. And the Biden Administration must ensure that no one who would benefit from this legislation is detained or deported.
