Reps Ramirez, Castro & Senators Blumenthal, Merkley, Hirono, Markey Introduce Bill to Reunite Separated Families & Prevent Future Separation
Dec. 18, 2024"Today, Congresswoman Delia C. Ramirez (IL-03), Vice Ranking Member of the House Committee on Homeland Security, along with Congressman Joaquin Castro (TX-20) and Senators Richard Blumenthal (CT-D), Jeff Merkley (OR-D), Mazie Hirono (HI-D), and Edward Markey (MA-D) introduced the bicameral Family Reunification Task Force Act. The legislation authorizes the Family Reunification Task Force to continue its work to reunite the thousands of families torn apart by Trump’s Zero Tolerance policy that inhumanely separated children from their parents."
Rep. Nanette Barragán, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, Rep. Salud Carbajal, Rep. André Carson, Rep. Joaquin Castro, Rep. Yvette Clarke, Rep. Adriano Espaillat, Rep. Robert Garcia, Rep. Sylvia Garcia, Rep. Dan Goldman, Rep. Al Green, Rep. Raúl Grijalva, Rep. Jonathan Jackson, Rep. Jim McGovern, Rep. LaMonica McIver, Rep. Rob Menendez, Sen. Jeff Merkley, Del. Eleanor Norton, Rep. Delia Ramirez, Rep. Shri Thanedar, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, Rep. Paul Tonko, Rep. Juan VargasCongresswoman Ramirez Statement on Trump’s Plan to End Constitutional Birthright Citizenship
Dec. 9, 2024"Congresswoman Delia C. Ramirez (IL-03), Vice Ranking Member of the Homeland Security Committee and proud daughter of Guatemalan immigrants, released the following statement after incoming president Donald Trump doubled down on his unconstitutional plan to end birthright citizenship:
“‘Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.’ It is important to remember who we are, where many of us came from, and why many of our families traveled here to be greeted by the Mother of Exiles, the Statue of Liberty. The story of our nation wouldn't be complete without the sweat, tears, joy, dreams, and hopes of so many children of immigrants who are citizens by birthright and pride themselves on being AMERICANS. It is the story of so many IL-03 communities, strengthened by the immigration of people from Poland, Ukraine, Italy, Mexico, and Guatemala, among others. It is the story of many members of Congress who can point to the citizenship of their forebears and ancestors because of immigration and birthright."
Rep. Delia RamirezRep. Juan Vargas, Colleagues Introduce Bicameral Bill to Standardize CBP Handling of Personal Belongings
Dec. 5, 2024"U.S. Representative Juan Vargas (CA-52) joined U.S. Representatives Delia Ramirez (IL-03) and Raúl Grijalva (AZ-07) and Senators Peter Welch (D-VT), Dick Durbin (D-IL), and Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) in introducing the CBP Guidance on Personal Belongings Act. This legislation would require the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to develop guidance to better ensure the respectful handling of personal property of individuals who are in CBP custody."
Sen. Tammy Duckworth, Sen. Dick Durbin, Rep. Raúl Grijalva, Rep. Delia Ramirez, Rep. Juan Vargas, Sen. Peter WelchCongresswoman Ramirez Statement Calling for the Expedited Return of Deported Veterans
Nov. 11, 2024"Today, in commemoration of Veterans Day, Congresswoman Delia C. Ramirez (IL-03), member of the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, released the following statement calling for expedited action to return 5 deported veterans home to Illinois and others throughout the nation.
“Over the years, servicemembers –independently of their migration status– have served in the United States Armed Forces. Despite their service and sacrifice, too many undocumented veterans have faced deportation due to a failed immigration system that does not honor who we say we are as a nation. As we celebrate our veterans, we must remember those who today find themselves living in exile, separated from their families, and often struggling to access the benefits and support they earned through their service. It is time to return these veterans home and deliver justice and support. Today, I call on Governor Pritzker, President Biden, and every elected official to use the full power of local and federal government to reunite families and honor every veteran with actions. For Sergio Andrade, Jiji Thomas Kurian, Elsworth Alexander Smith, Mark Osmond Isaacs, Gerardo Emiterio Lopez Flores: the time to act is today!”
Rep. Delia RamirezCongresswoman Ramirez Statement on the Appointment of Tom Homan as “Border Czar”
Nov. 11, 2024"Today, Congresswoman Delia C. Ramirez (IL-03), Vice Ranking Member of the Homeland Security Committee and Founder of the Congressional Caucus on Global Migration, released the following statement:
“Today’s announcement that former acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Thomas Homan will serve as “Border Czar” should make it clear to everyone that the Trump Administration will make good on their promises of mass deportation. We know *exactly* who Tom Homan is. He is the architect of the “zero tolerance” policy that separated thousands of migrant children from their parents with no plan for reunification. He demonstrates cold disregard for the U.S. citizenship of the at least 4 million children with an undocumented parent, suggesting to keep families together, they should be deported together."
Rep. Delia RamirezWarren, Gillibrand, Frost, Espaillat Lead Coalition of 70 Lawmakers in Pushing for DHS, USCIS to Clear Work Permit Backlog for Migrants By End of Year
