Key Points

This resolution is a formal statement by a group of lawmakers to honor the history and hard work of immigrants in the United States. It highlights how immigrants serve in the military, start businesses, and help the economy grow.
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.
Because this is a resolution and not a law, it does not change any current rules or provide new money. It is used to show what these lawmakers believe the country's priorities should be regarding immigration.
