AI Summary

This resolution celebrates the historic and ongoing contributions of immigrants to the United States, drawing on quotes from past presidents to emphasize America's identity as a nation of immigrants. The resolution recognizes immigrants' significant economic, cultural, and military contributions, highlighting their role in filling labor shortages, starting businesses, enriching communities, and serving in the armed forces. It strongly condemns discriminatory immigration policies such as family separation, arbitrary detention of asylum seekers, and targeting individuals based on race, religion, or national origin, arguing that such practices are contrary to the nation's founding principles of freedom and equality. The resolution calls on the House of Representatives to acknowledge immigrants' invaluable contributions, condemn all forms of immigrant discrimination, urge the Administration to protect immigrants' rights and dignity, advocate for humane immigration policies that prioritize family unity and provide pathways to citizenship, and support comprehensive immigration reform that balances economic needs with compassionate, inclusive principles.
