Congressional Hispanic Caucus To Meet With President Obama On Immigration Reform

July 9, 2013

Washington, D.C.: Today, Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chair Rubén Hinojosa (TX-15) released the following statement announcing that the CHC will meet with President Barack Obama tomorrow morning to discuss immigration reform:

"The Congressional Hispanic Caucus has long worked in a bi-partisan manner, as conveners, consensus builders and leaders in the fight to pass comprehensive immigration reform. President Barack Obama has been a great partner in the fight to reform of our broken immigration system. We look forward to meeting with him to discuss how we build on the bipartisan work done in the Senate and pass an immigration reform bill in the House that promotes fairness, the rule of law, contributes effectively and meaningfully to our economic well-being, and provides a path to citizenship for the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in this country."

All the Members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus are expected to attend the meeting.
