- Gallego emphasized that it is possible to strengthen both our border security and immigration system simultaneously, while also ensuring that asylum seekers are treated with dignity and respect.
- The plan may find bipartisan support on border security but faces challenges in legalizing undocumented immigrants amid current political divisions.
