Rep. Lofgren Issues Statement on Strive Act of 2007
March 27, 2007
Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) released the following statement today in response to the introduction of the STRIVE Act of 2007.
“I applaud Reps. Gutierrez and Flake for their efforts to address our nation’s need for comprehensive immigration reform. As chair of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, I welcome the input of all my Congressional colleagues and look forward to hearing all of their concerns. For reform on this scale to be effective, it must be bipartisan and built on common ground. As the subcommittee moves forward with comprehensive reform, we will review all relevant legislation in our efforts to build a system that is balanced, enforceable, and fair. I’m honored to have been selected to lead this effort, and I believe that we can build a system that the American people can be proud of," said Rep. Lofgren.
