Giving up 20-plus years of seniority on Financial Services is not easy, but passing comprehensive immigration reform is my passion and my commitment. All of the road signs are pointed in the right direction, and I felt I must be on the Judiciary Committee during this Congress to help the others on the Committee get immigration reform to the finish line. -LVG

    As we deal with the ‘fiscal cliff’ and gear up for immigration reform and legalizing immigrants, we are pushing more than 90,000 parents of U.S. citizens per year off of the ‘deportation cliff.’ We shouldn’t be deporting parents who we hope... to legalize in immigration reform and leaving their children in foster care or in some other limbo. Administratively stopping the deportations is an urgent matter that could be a catalyst for permanent, legislative reform. -LVGSee More

    "Más que un permiso renovable por dos años, los jóvenes beneficiados por la política de Acción Diferida quieren que este sea el primer paso para una reforma migratoria integral que incluya también a sus familias."

    Un buen artículo sobre jóvenes que inspiran:
