Dozens of immigrants rallied with elected officials at Corona Plaza Friday and marched through the neighborhood, calling on Congress and President Joe Biden’s administration to include a path to citizenship for undocumented essential workers as part of its infrastructure plan.

Over the past year, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, immigrant essential workers risked their lives and kept the country’s economy operating by providing vital support on the front lines as health workers, caregivers, educators and delivery workers.
