On Wednesday, November 30, 2022, Congressman Al Green released the following statement:

“On Saturday, November 26, 2022, I joined Yasmin Vossoughian on MSNBC to discuss various topics, which included the latest on the case of my constituent Jaime Avalos who is a DACA recipient, is currently stranded in Mexico, and barred from returning to the U.S. for 10 years. As I shared with Ms. Vossoughian during the interview, I’ve spoken to U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to see what can be done about Mr. Avalos’s case and our nation’s broken immigration system overall. To learn more about Mr. Avalos and my efforts to bring him home to Houston, I encourage you to watch this part of my MSNBC interview.”
