Congressman Raul Ruiz Releases a Statement on President Biden’s Executive Action that Keeps Families Together and Protects Dreamers

Washington D.C. - Yesterday,Congressman Dr. Raul Ruiz (CA-25) released the following statement after President Biden announced two new executive actions that will offer a path to citizenship for thousands of immigrants who are married to U.S. citizens and further protect Dreamers.

"Today's executive action from President Biden is good news. It is going to bring relief and protections for immigrants, noncitizens, spouses, and children of United States citizens that have been living in the United States for 10 years or more and have been contributing to our economy through their taxes," said Congressman Dr. Raul Ruiz. "In addition, this executive action is going to expedite work visas for DACA recipients and other Dreamers so that they can contribute to our economy in an expedited fashion.

"This is not amnesty. This is necessary because of our broken immigration system and Republican obstructionist voting against comprehensive immigration reform. The ultimate solution is going to be a Congressional law that will fix our broken immigration system once and for all," finished Congressman Dr. Raul Ruiz.
