FWD.us Statement on H.Res. 774, “Queen of the Hill” Rule to Force Debate and a Vote on Dreamer and Immigration Legislation

WASHINGTON, DC – FWD.us President Todd Schulte issued the following statement today on H.Res. 774, which would force debate and a vote in the U.S. House of Representatives on four pieces of immigration legislation:

“It's been more than 7 months since DACA was repealed and it is ridiculous that the House hasn't allowed a single vote to protect Dreamers. That is why we are supporting this resolution that simply says let's take a single day – even just an hour – and vote on a series of bills that deal with Dreamers. Some are good and some are bad, but Congress should do its job and actually VOTE."

“We are particularly grateful for Congressman Denham’s and Congressman Aguilar’s continued commitment to protecting millions of promising young people who, in the face of congressional inaction, risk deportation to countries they barely remember.”
