WASHINGTON ­– U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.) released the following statement after Representatives Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Fla.) and Veronica Escobar (D-Texas) introduced the Dignity Act:

“Our immigration system is deeply broken and congressional action is long overdue. That’s why I applaud Reps. Salazar and Escobar for their leadership in introducing the bipartisan Dignity Act. Their legislation is an important step forward as we work towards a more fair, humane, orderly, and legal immigration system. I look forward to working with my colleagues to introduce legislation in the Senate that can move us forward.”
