Working Families Ask Rep. Rodney Davis to Support Road Map to Citizenship
A group of working families advocates, led by labor unions and community and faith groups, visited the office of Rep. Rodney Davis (R) in Champaign, Ill., delivering a letter that asked him to support a comprehensive immigration policy with a road map to citizenship. Davis was not present. While a Davis spokesperson said he has an open mind on immigration, he has repeatedly put forth issue stances on immigration that are punitive and regressive and said that bill that passed the Senate was "dead on arrival."

In the letter , the groups say that America deserves a vote on an immigration bill that fixes the problems with our immigration system by providing a road map to citizenship for aspiring Americans, keeping families together, protecting the rights of workers and boosting the economy. The letter puts a strong emphasis on the wrongness of dividing families and exploiting immigrant workers who aren't protected by the system because of their legal status. It also specifies the ways, such as paying taxes, that undocumented immigrants already contribute to America's society.
