DAY ONE ACTION: Biden to Unveil Legislation to Provide Path to Citizenship for Millions
[quote]President-elect Joe Biden is reportedly planning to unveil legislation on his first day in the Oval Office that would provide a legal path to citizenship for an estimated 11 million immigrants.
Four people briefed on Biden's plans told [i]The Associated Press[/i] the measure is among his top priorities during his first days in the White House, along with controlling the coronavirus pandemic and rejuvenating the U.S. economy.
Biden campaigned on creating a legal path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants during the 2020 presidential cycle.
"It is a moral failing and a national shame when a father and his baby daughter drown seeking our shores. When children are locked away in overcrowded detention centers and the government seeks to keep them there indefinitely," Biden says on his campaign website.
