- The proposal speaks out against policies that separate families or target people based on their race or religion. It argues that these practices cause unnecessary fear and trauma for families and hurt the country as a whole.
- It calls for the government to protect the rights of people seeking safety and to create a way for long-term residents to become citizens. It also supports making the immigration system more welcoming and fair.
