Rep. María Salazar introduced what she calls the Dignity Act, which is shorthand for "Dignity for Immigrants while Guarding our Nation to Ignite and Deliver the American Dream," last summer. (It just happens that DIGNIDAD is Spanish for "dignity.") One of the main goals of the bill is to provide a "dignified" solution for illegal aliens. The dignified solution would be to self-deport and then come back legally, but Salazar told a local ABC affiliate that she hopes someone picks up the ball in the future and creates a path to citizenship.
Rep. Maria Salazar (R) goes mask off:

The real goal of her "Dignity Act" is to keep the illegals here so that they'll eventually receive citizenship

HELL NO. @RepMariaSalazar they ALL go back home.

Congrats. You just ended your political career.
Ever notice how liberals like @RepMariaSalazar are always so concerned about the "dignity" of everyone BUT law abiding citizens?

She may be a registered Republican, but she's a liberal.
Communist representatives register as Republican to win a district, and fool the lazy voter. They get voted into office and proceeded to ruin the country with anti-American policies like these . Follow her money. Her financial backing tells all.

What are these people not understanding about the fact that we don’t want any people in our country who came here illegally at all? We don’t want amnesty. We want mass deportation, and whoever’s running for 2028 must notice.

DIGNIDAD ACT, she’s pretending they didn’t use the Spanish word for dignity in the name of it. They slipped a nice middle finger in there for everyone who doesn’t want amnesty.

She needs to be voted out. This is not what Americans want.

This has got to be the dumbest explanation of the bill.

“We’re not giving them Amnesty, We’re giving them dignity” with their definition of “dignity” being American citizenship after breaking the law? They deserve nothing.
Meanwhile, with court dates 3-5 years out, millions will have babies on American soil…
— CageMan (@CageManSchmidt) April 7, 2026
Then they’ll claim that we can’t separate families with American citizens in them…
She’s been spouting this BS for years

Nope we don’t want them to stay. Mass deportations and yes primary any politician advocating for this

Peace and dignity for those who intentionally break our laws, then give them citizenship. What about Americans? Why should we have to support them and reward them? You’re no good. Never have been.

These traitors. They are the enemy to the citizens of this country. They are the complete opposite to what Trump ran on. This can NEVER BE ALLOWED.
— BillyH777 (@Billyx702) April 7, 2026
Unfortunately, President Trump has endorsed her.
Constituent Here: This is all smoke so she can get votes and manipulate the emotions of non-Cuban Hispanics within her district (Miami) since she has a competent opponent this election cycle.

DIGNIDAD is going nowhere. Despite the Trump endorsement, let's hope she's primaried and voted out.
