Now that the Covid Relief Act is just about done...

I’d like to see them focus on an immigration bill that grants DACA and TPS holders permanent status. I have a vested interest in this. My husband from Honduras has been here since 1997 and TPS since 1998 and has been working and paying taxes and is not a criminal and shouldn’t be forced to go back to Honduras.

H.R. 1, the voting bill has got to be resolved. The TeapubliKKKans have a choke hold on voting rules via the States and a federal law has to be made. Then, immigration is next, but yes, I agree with you 100%.

Just from a pragmatic view, independent of the obvious humanitarian consideration.
