Strengthening Our Workforce Act of 2023

This bill creates a pathway to conditional permanent residency for certain undocumented immigrants working in critical sectors. It directly affects individuals present in the U.S. without lawful status as of January 1, 2023 - including DACA recipients - who have worked at least 100 days in one of the designated "covered professions" (like healthcare, education, agriculture, food service, construction, or essential infrastructure work). To qualify, applicants must maintain continuous U.S. presence, work 100 days annually for two years, and meet specific criminal inadmissibility standards. If eligible, their conditional status automatically converts to full permanent residency after two years, without being subject to annual visa quotas.
