“As Americans celebrated our nation’s 239th birthday, we were reminded that what makes our country so exceptional are the contributions of people who come from all around the world to live here—from the earliest settlers to the thousands of people who swore an oath of citizenship on Independence Day.
“Here in the California Assembly, we are proud to have the most diverse Republican Caucus in history that reflects the distinct cultural makeup of California and the nation. To reaffirm that, we have called on Congress to enact immigration reform, and just last week we proudly celebrated Immigrant Heritage Month.
“We call on every person— including politicians and wannabe politicians – to join Californians and embrace and respect immigrants and their contributions to America.”
