Congressman Jim Banks (IN-03) today commended President Donald Trump for working with Congress on efforts to reform America's immigration system. Banks issued the following statement regarding the RAISE Act, immigration legislation that the President discussed at the White House yesterday:
"Our current immigration system is outdated and in need of reform and modernization. This proposal is a common-sense approach that recognizes individual merit, protects American workers and addresses our nation's economic needs. The RAISE Act would be a move in the right direction and will serve as a great starting point for debate on this important issue."
