Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, Sen. Ben Ray Luján, Sen. Alex PadillaSenate Democrats demand amnesty protections in Biden lame duck
Dec. 10, 2024"As Senators who represent diverse states across our nation and who collectively represent
millions of immigrant families, we write to express our deep concern about the threat the
incoming administration poses to immigrants in our communities. Mass deportations would
jeopardize the safety and security of millions of mixed-status families, sow deep distrust and fear
in the communities we represent, and destabilize the U.S. economy. While we support commonsense steps to better secure our borders and improve border processing, we will continue to
oppose any policies that contradict our nation’s core values."

Specifically, the Senators called on the Biden-Harris Administration to designate Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Ecuador for Temporary Protected Status (TPS), as well as expedite processing times for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients seeking to renew their status. These proposed actions would be important steps to help protect immigrants from being forced back to dangerous conditions."
