Together, we’re mobilizing the power of American businesses and the general public to promote and advocate for sensible immigration solutions and reform.
On Wednesday, ABIC Action hosted a press conference to discuss the Dignity Act, a commonsense immigration proposal introduced by @RepMariaSalazar. 20 Members of Congress (10 Republicans and 10 Democrats) have already co-sponsored this legislation. abicaction.org/american-busin…

About 50% of the workers at Baker Ranches in NV are foreign-born, shared Janille Baker at our press event today, and interest from U.S. workers is low due to the hard labor. She is encouraged by the introduction of the Dignity Act and Pres. Trump's recent comments on work permits
At a press event today, ABIC Action and business leaders spoke in support of the Dignity Act, introduced by @RepMariaSalazar Tuesday. ABIC CEO Rebecca Shi explains why this bipartisan proposal, backed by 10 Reps and 10 Dems, comes at a critical time for our workforce:
A powerful message to @POTUS from @RepMariaSalazar: You are a businessman who understands our economy needs a reliable workforce, now is the opportunity to fix a 40 year mess with the Dignity Act
BREAKING: the Dignity Act has been reintroduced in Congress by @RepMariaSalazar (R-FL-27) and @RepEscobar (D-TX). ABIC Action welcomes the opportunity for legislators on both sides of the aisle to come together and support the immigration reform our country so desperately needs.
We are the most noble nation on earth and a nation that respects the rule of law. It’s time our immigration system reflected that. The Dignity Act is coming in one day. No amnesty. No excuses. Let’s fix our system once and for all with dignity.
Delivering certainty for farmers, workers, and lowering prices for Americans is critical- Thank you for your leadership @RepNewhouse
