Issue Position: Improving Our Immigration System

Issue Position

Will recognizes that the vast majority of immigrants come to the United States, and to Chicago in particular, for work and better opportunities for their families. Will also knows that immigration is not going to stop, regardless of how punitive the law becomes. Immigration law should center on providing accessible routes to citizenship and fair treatment of all who work in the U.S., regardless of citizenship status.

Advocating for comprehensive immigration reform centered on safe routes to citizenship and fair treatment of all immigrant workers, regardless of status
Engaging a diverse coalition of neighborhood groups to fight disinformation and prejudice and bring together residents all over the 39th District
