WELCOMING PENNSYLVANIA CAUCUS

LEGISLATION


House Bill 1113 – Office of New Pennsylvanians  This bill’s goal is to make Pennsylvania more welcoming and economically resilient by harnessing the contributions of newcomers by establishing the Office of New Pennsylvanians tasked with attracting, retaining, and embracing immigrants.

Senate Bill 86 – Pennsylvania DREAM Act  The bill supports the educational ambitions of long-term undocumented youth—particularly those who have lived and attended school in Pennsylvania—by making higher education more accessible and affordable.

House Bill 1518 – Driver’s Licenses for All  The bill would ensure that all residents—including noncitizens and undocumented individuals—have access to non-REAL-ID licenses. This change will improve public safety by reducing the number of unlicensed and uninsured drivers on the road.

House Bill 1281 – Providing Clarity and Consistency for U-Visas  The bill establishes a clear, timely, and supportive process for local and state officials to handle U-visa certifications—emphasizing responsiveness, privacy, cooperation, and training.
