3. National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference

With the Supreme Court's ruling, the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez and Dr. Joseph Castleberry of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference are urging lawmakers to support an immigration reform solution that "respects the rule of law, permanently secures our borders, stops illegal immigration and human trafficking, and ensures that those involved in criminal activity are deported."

"At the same time, we believe Congress should establish a permanent pathway for those who were brought to this country as children, as President Trump has previously supported, while also addressing the workforce needs of key sectors of our economy through lawful worker visa programs," Rodriguez and Castleberry said in a joint statement.

"Such reforms should preserve family unity for those who have lived and contributed to our nation for decades without granting blanket amnesty or automatic citizenship. We believe America can uphold both the rule of law and the God-given dignity of every human being. We remain committed to advocating for immigration policies that strengthen families, secure our borders, and reflect both justice and compassion."
