“Providing more than half a million families the opportunity to permanently live and work in the United States is the exact type of just and humane immigration reform that leaders in Washington should embrace during these difficult times,” said Sarang Sekhavat, the MIRA Coalition’s Chief of Staff. “We applaud the Biden administration for moving to provide legal status and protections to children and families who know America as their only home. Instead of living in fear of deportation, hundreds of thousands of immigrants will now be able to live and work freely across the country, and ultimately, make our nation stronger.”
