Preferences. Defendants of unregistered immigrants remember that presidential candidate Barack Obama promised an immigration bill before his victory in 2009, but he did not address the issue until his second term.

“It simply came to our notice then […] It recognizes that all unregistered immigrants currently in the United States should be kept on the citizenship path, ”said Marilena Hinkopy, executive director of the National Immigration Law Center, which explained the bill. .
If successful, the law would be the biggest step in granting status to the country’s illegitimate people since President Ronald Reagan granted a debt waiver to nearly 3 million people in 1986. Legislative efforts failed in 2007 and 2013 to revise immigration policy.
Ron Klein, Joe Biden’s new chief of staff, said on Saturday that the new president would send the immigration bill to Congress on his first day. He did not elaborate further and Joe Biden’s office declined to give details.
Esther Oliverria, deputy director of immigration at the White House’s Home Policy Council, explained in recent days to undocumented immigrant defenders on the main avenues of the bill.

Ali Noorani, chairman of the National Forum on Immigration and one of the commentators on Thursday evening, said it would put immigrants on the eight-year path to citizenship. Participants in the Deferred Action Program for the Arrivals for Children (Dhaka) will have a fast lane to protect people from being deported if they come to the country as children. Those with temporary protection status (TPS) also have a faster route because they come from conflict-torn countries.
Vice President-designate Kamala Harris made similar comments in an interview with Univision aired on Tuesday, saying DACA and TPS recipients “automatically receive green cards”, while others are on the path to eight-year citizenship.
