Statement by AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka On Gang of Eight Immigration Bill

Washington, DC–(ENEWSPF)–April 17, 2013.  The bill introduced today is another step toward addressing a real crisis. The United States urgently needs a roadmap to citizenship for more than 11 million aspiring Americans. And while Washington, D.C., is full of legislative unveilings that dissolve into recriminations and unsolved problems, this time actually is different. Our cause is unstoppable. There will be a roadmap to citizenship in 2013.
