Texas Business Immigration Coalition (TBIC)

MALC Chair @Victoria4Texas responds to Biden Admin border executive order: “While Congressional gridlock continues to block long-overdue comprehensive immigration reform, President Biden has in his hands the executive authority to do something right now—extend work permits to long-term U.S. residents. We cannot afford to wait—long-term residents have worked and paid taxes for years, even decades, without the security of a work permit.  One in four Texas families are mixed-status. The economic boom to our nation would be $16 billion in economic activity from 10.6 million U.S. citizen adults who are a part of mixed-status families.  Times are urgent. We implore President Biden to leverage his administrative authority to extend work permits to long-term residents. Such action would be a positive step towards fostering inclusivity, enhancing our economy, and recognizing the valuable contributions of individuals who have made our communities their home.” #txlege
