Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) are expected to release an Op-ed tomorrow to provide an outline of what could be expected in a Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill, on which both senators are working.

AGC remains a steering committee member of the Essential Worker Immigration Coalition (EWIC) and is in active discussions with both Capitol Hill staff and the administration on this issue.
