Bonamici joins Democratic members to lead immigration package in response to Trump State of the Union Address
Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici (OR-01), joined by Reps. Adriano Espaillat (NY-13) José E. Serrano (NY-15), Donald S. Beyer Jr. (VA-08), Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), and Jesús "Chuy" García (IL-04), introduced a critical legislative package to protect immigrant rights.
"The Trump administration's continued assault on immigrants is inhumane and un-American," said Rep. Suzanne Bonamici. "As a mother, it breaks my heart to think of the thousands of children who have been torn away from their parents. With these bills, we can immediately reunite those families and prevent further harm to them and others. We will be able to preserve video records of any incident involving immigration agents. And we can stop ICE from targeting immigrants at courthouses, which is deterring vulnerable people from reporting crimes and seeking protective orders, civil justice, or police assistance. This important package of legislation will provide much-needed transparency, oversight, and accountability for the anti-immigrant forces in this administration."
