Because of the work that you and others have done here in Iowa and around the country, we saw a major victory last week when Senate Democrats approved a budget resolution including a pathway to citizenship for millions of immigrants! Now, it’s time for the House to do the same. Can you help keep up the momentum by urging Cindy Axne to support this movement? Sign our petition and ask her to publicly support a path of citizenship in the budget resolution!

The Biden administration has recently granted temporary refuge to people from various countries through Temporary Protected Status (TPS) or through Deferred Enforced Departure (DED). These programs offer some protection and limited immigration benefits to those seeking safety from unrest, crippling impacts from disasters or persecution. We stand with people all over the world who are suffering, who are exercising their human right to migrate. We acknowledge the role that U.S. policies have played around the world and we offer our services to help people navigate the complex and ever changing U.S. immigration system.
