Dignity Not Citizenship by Maria Elvira Salazar
Immigration has reached a breaking point. After four decades of political gridlock—and four years of President Biden’s incredibly reckless open-borders policy—Americans are demanding real solutions, but such solutions require the political willpower to cross party lines, stand up, and say, “enough is enough.” ICE raids and mass deportations won’t solve the problem—they will make things far worse. And neither will blanket amnesty and wide-open borders. Dignity Not Citizenship is Congresswoman Maria Elvira Salazar’s urgent answer to the most divisive question facing our country today: How do we finally solve immigration and make America better for all Americans? In this bold and timely book, Salazar lays out her revolutionary legislative plan: the Dignity Act—a pragmatic, compassionate, complete, and bipartisan proposal to fix our broken system once and for all. Drawing on decades of experience, Salazar makes the case for a solution that secures our borders, strengthens our economy, and gives millions of long-term undocumented immigrants—many here for 5, 10, even 20 years—a plan to step out of the shadows. In the process, it makes cities safer, adds trillions to our economy, puts money in your pocket, and ensures our position as the greatest country in the world. With clarity, conviction, and courage, Dignity Not Citizenship charts a course that restores our humanity and reclaims America’s moral leadership. This isn’t just a book of policy—it’s a book about people, the very people who—day in and day out—make this country great. It’s time for a new vision. It’s time for Dignity.
