Secure Border and Fair Immigration System
House Democrats are fighting for a safe, secure, and orderly process at the Southern border that protects people’s right to seek asylum and immigrate legally. They are also fighting to pass comprehensive immigration reform, including a path to citizenship for people who have lived here for decades – like Dreamers – who pass a background check, pay taxes, and make great contributions to our country. Meanwhile, MAGA Republicans are playing politics with the border, rejecting solutions out of loyalty to Trump, and using divisive rhetoric that puts our communities in danger.

Americans overwhelmingly support bipartisan immigration reform, but MAGA Republicans rejected a bipartisan border deal that would have increased funding for border patrol, added additional immigration judges and asylum officers, and committed more resources to fight the fentanyl crisis.
Donald Trump has bragged that he killed the Bipartisan Border Deal, saying it was “not going to happen” and that he would “fight it all the way” to boost his reelection and House Republicans immediately fell in line.
Donald Trump tried to end the DACA program, ripped children from their mother’s arms, said immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our country,” and doubled down on a plan to separate families by deporting millions of people who have lived in the U.S. for decades.
