"From the moment the pandemic locked down the country, immigrant essential workers have been risking their lives to help the United States survive." - @douglasrivlin
"On farms and in the fields, in hospitals and kitchens, as home health aides, nurses, drivers, delivery persons and so many key categories of work, their work has sustained us." - @douglasrivlin
"Having fought for the United States and helped all of us through the pandemic - while paying heavy toll in sickness and death and while excluded from most government relief measures - immigrant essential workers have earned a path to citizenship." - @douglasrivlin
"In this Congress, American communities are fighting to deliver a path to citizenship and this legislation provides an additional avenue to pursue that goal." - @douglasrivlin
"Whether it is as a standalone measure, part of COVID-19 package or paired with citizenship bills like HR 6 or HR 1603, the Citizenship for Essential Workers Act gives the Congress another road forward." - @douglasrivlin
"When we are asked if we support this bill or that bill, our answer is ‘yes.’ We support the bill or bills that provide a path to citizenship that will be passed by both houses of Congress and signed by the President during this Congress." - @douglasrivlin
"The time is now to provide a path to citizenship to America’s undocumented essential workers. The President and Democrats support it. The American people support it." - @douglasrivlin
"And Republicans who support recovery from the pandemic and economic growth to get us moving again should support bills that provide a path to citizenship." - @douglasrivlin
