The group, led by Oregon House Speaker Tina Kotek (D-Portland) and the Oregon Association of Nurseries, wants Congress to make it easier for immigrants to enter Oregon.

Even before the groundswell of anti-immigrant feeling that buoyed Donald J. Trump, Oregon voters soundly rejected a 2014 measure to let undocumented workers get driver's licenses.
