WASHINGTON, D.C. - One year after Representatives María Elvira Salazar (R-FL) and Veronica Escobar (D-TX) introduced the DIGNITY Act (H.R.4393), the coalition behind the legislation has surpassed 100 organizational and stakeholder endorsements. The milestone underscores growing national support for the only viable and bipartisan immigration reform proposal currently in Congress.
Employers, manufacturers, farmers, restaurants, builders, educators, scientists, faith leaders, families, mayors, community leaders, immigrant advocates, and veterans, groups that often disagree on immigration policy, have united behind a bipartisan framework that restores the rule of law, strengthens America's workforce, and provides a practical solution to a broken immigration system.
"You can tell a lot about a bill by who's willing to stand behind it. Today, we have farmers standing next to faith leaders, employers standing next to Dreamers, people who agree on almost nothing else in politics, all backing the same solution," said Rep. María Elvira Salazar. "Washington doesn't see agreement like that very often. Now my job is to turn that agreement into law."
The coalition's growth has translated into measurable progress on Capitol Hill. The DIGNITY Act now has the support of 40 Members of Congress, has been endorsed by the Problem Solvers Caucus, and continues to attract lawmakers and stakeholders committed to advancing meaningful immigration reform that is good for America.
Beyond Congress, the DIGNITY Act has expanded national engagement on immigration reform through the National DIGNITY Tour, policy forums, roundtables, and meetings with employers, workers, Dreamers, mixed-status families, faith leaders, and community organizations across the country. Those conversations have helped strengthen the legislation while broadening support for a practical path forward.
