Minority Teenage Pregnancy Bill Touted by Lawmakers
Legislation Provides Federal Funding for Minority Teen Pregnancy Prevention Programs Despite the fact that our nation has made progress to reduce the rate of teen pregnancy, many minority communities continue to struggle with disproportionately high rates. To address disturbing statistics that show over half of all Latina and African American girls will become pregnant at least once before they turn 20, Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard and U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer introduced The Communities of Color Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Act of 2011. “Teenage pregnancies often lead to ...

Rep. Roybal-Allard Stands with DREAMERS, Defends DACA Program Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard (CA-40), the ranking Democrat on the House Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee and the co-chair of the Women’s Working Group on Immigration Reform, issued the following statement as President Trump considers the future of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. “It is unconscionable and un-American that President Trump is even considering devastating the futures of the nearly 800,000 young Dreamers who are American in every way, but their immigration status. DACA helps young people who know no home but the United States, to use their talents to strengthen our economy, our society, and our communities. “Since DACA was created, it has contributed to the positive economic outlook of cities, states, and our nation as a whole. Simply put, without the contributions, innovations and inventions of immigrants, America would suffer. Terminating this critical program would force hundreds of thousands of young peopl |
Rep. Roybal-Allard Criticizes Anti-Immigrant RAISE Act Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard (CA-40), the ranking Democrat on the House Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee, issued the following statement criticizing the anti-immigrant Reforming American Immigration for Strong Employment (RAISE) Act, a bill by Senators Tom Cotton (R-AR) and David Perdue (R-GA) and endorsed by President Trump: “America was built by hardworking immigrants of all kinds and all talents. The US has been, and must always be, a home for those Emma Lazarus described as ‘huddled masses yearning to breathe free.’ That creed was betrayed today by President Trump when he promoted the RAISE Act, a cruel and brazen pander to anti-immigrant voices at the expense of American businesses and workers. A person’s value cannot be confined to a set of skills, no matter how much Donald Trump and the authors of the RAISE Act would like you to believe that. We owe our heartfelt gratitude to the hardworking immigrants in the 40th District a |
Rep. Roybal-Allard Speaks at Capitol Event to Support DREAMers and Defend DACA Today, Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard (CA-40), the lead House Democratic sponsor of the DREAM Act of 2017, the ranking Democrat on the House Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee, and the co-chair of the Women’s Working Group on Immigration Reform, joined House and Senate Democrats at a U.S. Capitol event to support DREAMers and defend Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), a program President Trump has announced he will end in six months. In her remarks at the event, Congresswoman Roybal-Allard urged her colleagues to support the DREAM Act, and urged Speaker Ryan to bring a clean DREAM Act to the House floor without delay. The DREAM Act of 2017, which Congresswoman Roybal-Allard has introduced with Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (FL-27), is a bipartisan bill allowing U.S.-raised immigrant youth to earn lawful permanent residence and American citizenship. The bill currently has 114 cosponsors in the House, and growing. The companion bill |
Rep. Roybal-Allard Statement on President’s DACA Decision Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard (CA-40), the ranking Democrat on the House Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee and the co-chair of the Women’s Working Group on Immigration Reform, issued the following statement about the president’s DACA decision: “The president’s action to end DACA in six months is outrageous. This is a heartbreaking day for our country, and for the bright young DACA recipients who know no home but America. Our country needs these young people and their talents more than ever to strengthen our economy and our society. President Trump’s decision to end DACA is cruel, destructive, and un-American. The United States is a nation built in large part by the contributions, innovations, and inventions of immigrants. The president’s action against DACA only weakens the United States. “I will continue fighting in Congress to pass legislation that will permanently protect DACA recipients before the six months expire.
