On this day in 2012, the Cuban regime killed opposition leader Oswaldo Payá. Today, we must remember his legacy and stand for a Cuba free from communism.
Hace 13 años, el régimen comunista cubano asesinó a Oswaldo Payá por atreverse a decir la verdad. Intentaron borrarlo. Pero nunca podrán borrar su valentía. Por eso, me enorgullece copatrocinar el proyecto de ley para renombrar la calle frente a la embajada cubana como “Oswaldo…
Hace 13 años, el régimen cubano asesinó a los líderes prodemocráticos Oswaldo Payá y Harold Cepero. Su valentía sigue inspirando a todos los que luchan por la democracia y la libertad en Cuba. El legado de Payá continúa a través de su hija, Rosa María Payá, quien servirá en la…
13 years ago today, the Cuban Communist regime killed Oswaldo Payá for daring to speak the truth. They tried to erase him. But we will always remember his bravery. That’s why I’m proud to co-sponsor the bill to rename that street in front of the Cuban embassy Oswaldo Payá Way.…
13 years ago, the Cuban regime murdered pro-democracy leaders Oswaldo Payá and Harold Cepero. Their courage continues to inspire everyone who struggles for democracy and freedom in Cuba. Payá’s legacy lives on with his daughter Rosa María Payá’s upcoming service on the…
The unelected, dictatorial Cuban and Maduro regimes blame the world for their incompetence and failures. But these regimes run on corruption, theft, and economic chaos. It’s long past time to hold them accountable.
Since day one, I’ve been calling out Alexandre de Moraes. I raised my voice in Congress to expose his abuse of power. Censorship, arrests, and political persecution have no place in a democracy. The visa revocation is a start, now we need full accountability.
Grateful for the chance to talk about my Dignity Act with the media this week! This plan has three key parts: 1️⃣ Enacts strong enforcement measures to end illegal immigration and make sure we never get into this mess again. 2️⃣Creates a one-time “Dignity Program” for certain…
La Ley Dignidad es la solución: ✅ Asegura la frontera. ✅ Detiene la inmigración ilegal. ✅ Ofrece a los inmigrantes de largo plazo la oportunidad de obtener un estatus legal — a través del trabajo, los impuestos y la responsabilidad. Sin amnistía. Sin privilegios…
The Dignity Act is the solution: ✅ Secures the border. ✅ Stops illegal immigration. ✅ Gives long-term immigrants a chance to earn legal status — through work, taxes, and accountability. No amnesty. No handouts. No path to citizenship. Just order, dignity, and economic…
Charlie - there are no tricks. There are no magic words. There are ways to establish how long someone has been here, including passport entries, DHS records, employment records, and tax receipts, etc. The burden of proof is on the individual. If they can’t prove it, they…
🚨WARNING — There are a handful of Republicans in Congress pushing the so-called "Dignity Act of 2025" which would shield illegals from deportation if they've been in the US since before 2021. Here's the trick: We do NOT know when many, or perhaps most, illegals entered the US.…
The GENIUS Act is headed to the President’s desk! House Republicans are protecting consumers and creating a regulatory framework for payment stablecoins. The United States will continue to be a world leader that drives innovation.
This is incorrect. This is a provision from the Dream Act included in the bill. No criminals or gang members are eligible. Period. Here’s how it works — when a Dreamer would apply to adjust status, there is an investigation - including a criminal background check, check for…
I want to focus on one particularly brazen provision in Maria Salazar's amnesty bill. She made a huge point of saying "gang members won't be admissible!" And, indeed, there is a provision that says if you "voluntarily participated in offenses committed by a criminal street gang"…
Señor Presidente, solo usted tiene la habilidad y el coraje político para arreglar lo que otros ni se atrevieron a tocar. La Ley de Dignidad es su oportunidad de lograr el mejor acuerdo migratorio que Estados Unidos haya visto. Este es su momento, y creo que usted es el líder…
Mr. President, only you have the skills and political courage to fix what others were too afraid to touch. The Dignity Act is your chance to make the best deal for our immigration system America has ever seen. This is your moment, and I believe you are the leader God has chosen…
Getting ready to join NewsNation with @lauraingle to discuss a step forward on immigration. The Dignity Act offers a strong, commonsense approach and focused on putting American interests first. #DignityAct
I joined NBC’s Meet the Press yesterday to talk about the Dignity Act of 2025, the groundbreaking immigration proposal I introduced yesterday. It’s time to do what is right for our economy and our security as a nation. Immigration is the top issue facing our country and…
Today’s the day I’ve been working toward for years: we introduced the new and improved Dignity Act of 2025. It’s been nonstop between media, press conferences, calls etc. but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Thank you all for this opportunity!
