<p><strong>PHOENIX</strong> — Maricela De Jesus has renewed hope that passage of an immigration bill in the Senate will finally allow her and her husband to step out of the shadows, after 13 years of living in the United States without legal documents.</p>
<p>“It would help me go back to Mexico and see my family,” said De Jesus. “My father died, and I couldn’t go back to see him.”</p>
