DOVER, Del. --  The Delaware Hispanic Commission will hold a press conference Wednesday as Congress considers a historic proposal for a pathway to U.S. Citizenship for eight million immigrants.

The Hispanic commission will highlight the stories of those affected.

The proposal would create a pathway to citizenship for millions of people who are currently at risk of deportation. This is part of a $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill.
