Senator Blumenthal believes the United States is proudly a nation of immigrants, and that immigrants have made—and will continue to make—our country the greatest nation in the world. He has fought to bring comprehensive reform to our immigration laws, including an expanded and reformed visa and green card system, measures that crack down on immigration abuse and fraud, and an earned path to citizenship. As one of the Senate’s strongest supporters of those seeking refuge and asylum, Senator Blumenthal has consistently fought to protect and expand programs that make the United States a beacon of hope across the world.
