In an impassioned Senate floor speech, Padilla urges colleagues to 'do what’s right for Dreamers, farmworkers' by opposing the border security bill.
Breaking with his own party's leadership and the Biden administration, Democratic California Sen. Alex Padilla helped lead an effort to defeat the bipartisan border security bill that failed to advance again on Thursday. In an impassioned Senate floor speech, Padilla criticized the legislation as inadequate and encouraged his fellow senators to “do what’s right for Dreamers, farmworkers and other longterm undocumented members of our communities.
