Rockland’s Congressman has signed onto the 2023 “Dignity Act,” legislation authored by three Democrats and four Republicans that addresses border security and infrastructure. Representative Mike Lawler of the 17th District says the bill would also establish ways to grant legal status to undocumented immigrants already living in the U.S., and set up new pathways for asylum seekers, economic migrants and unaccompanied minors…
The bill would have to make it through several committees before it could possibly be voted on, including Homeland Security, Ways and Means, Agriculture, Transportation and Infrastructure, Foreign Affairs, and others.
