None

Senator Padilla introduces legislation for a pathway to legal residency, addressing immigration challenges posed by previous administrations.

Quiver AI Summary

U.S. Senator Alex Padilla held a press conference in Los Angeles to introduce a bill aimed at expanding pathways to lawful permanent residency for over 8 million long-term U.S. residents. The "Renewing Immigration Provisions of the Immigration Act of 1929" seeks to update outdated immigration laws amid ongoing enforcement actions from the previous administration.

The proposed legislation would allow immigrants who have lived in the U.S. for at least seven years to apply for residency, provided they meet specific criteria, including having no criminal record. Advocates support the bill as a commonsense solution to the challenges faced by immigrants contributing to American society.

Padilla emphasized the need for reform, stating, "If you’ve lived here for over seven years, paid taxes, and contributed to your community, you deserve a pathway to legalization." The bill has garnered support from various lawmakers and organizations who call for a fair immigration process amidst fears related to enforcement activities.
