TODAY, hear from TPS voices, and join in prayers & a call to action!
If you were not able to join with us last Monday for our first “Pathways Prayers for Citizenship,” where we’d focused on pathways to citizenship for farmworkers, information from that call is provided below.
We celebrate that—even since our gathering last Monday—the Senate has now passed the bi-partisan “Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act,” and last night also passed forward the $3.5B “Build Back Better” budget resolution (which now includes a revised amount of $105M for citizenship) and begins a budget reconciliation process.
Please help us continue to amplify these two faith Press Releases from last week:
We anticipate a FINAL vote on the budget reconciliation is likely to take place after much debate in September and October. Therefore, THIS AUGUST RECESS remains a crucial time to keep acting and praying week by week!
