In love, married and pregnant, Ashley DeAzevedo faced an impossible choice she never expected. If her husband, an undocumented immigrant from Brazil, wanted to become a US citizen, he’d have to leave the country for a decade. DeAzevedo, president of American Families United, an organization that advocates for mixed-status families, says it shouldn’t be about politics, but about doing what’s right. She spoke with CNN this week before and after Biden’s announcement, sharing how living in the shadows has affected her, her husband and their 11-year-old son, and what this new policy could mean for them and many others. https://lnkd.in/dU3YvDDz

About us
The American Business Immigration Coalition (ABIC) represents a growing and diverse set of businesses and business associations promoting common sense federal immigration reform to benefit the people and economy of our country. We believe that we have a unique opportunity to unite across diverse sectors – high-skilled and low-skilled, large corporations and small businesses – in a successful push for sensible reform alongside elected officials and immigrant advocates. Our goal is to provide a strong and effective voice for American businesses in the national immigration conversation and to urge our elected officials to vote for our economy and our communities by supporting sound, coherent immigration reform.
