NILC Statement on Standalone Senate Border Bill Vote

WASHINGTON — Kica Matos, president of the National Immigration Law Center and Immigrant Justice Fund, issued the following statement in response to the failed Senate border bill vote led by Democrats:

“Today’s Senate vote was political theater of the worst kind. Instead of embracing MAGA lite Republican talking points, Democratic elected officials need to get serious about advancing concrete, humane solutions that welcome people with dignity. That is what Americans want.”
