A bipartisan bill, the Dignity Act of 2025, aims to tackle the US green card backlog by 2035. Spearheaded by Reps. Salazar and Escobar, it proposes a $20,000 premium for those waiting over a decade to expedite their applications. The bill also seeks to raise per-country visa caps, provide permanent residency for documented dreamers, and reform student and employment visas.
