Alejandro Mayorkas: “It is not illegal to seek asylum in the United States. It is not.”

We need Congress to act swiftly to fund what should be a nonpartisan, apolitical phenomenon, and that is providing relief to all individuals with respect to the impacts of these extreme weather events.

The situation is grave. It requires solutions.

We continue to support the bipartisan legislation that a group of Senators worked on for months.
