The New York Times has broken the news that consultants from McKinsey—a global, corporate consulting firm that holds contracts with numerous government agencies—were complicit in fueling Trump's vicious anti-immigrant agenda. Not only were they willingly paid to collaborate in the development of an inhumane and illegal set of policies, they made recommendations that even made ICE officials uncomfortable—all in the name of separating, detaining, and deporting more immigrant families. The Trump administration's immigration policies are a stain on our nation's soul. The House of Representatives, which is already investigating the family separation policy, should specifically investigate the role of McKinsey consultants; how much they were paid; what expertise they brought; what recommendations they made; and how many other federal contracts they hold. We need Congress to take measures to cut all ties to McKinsey and other consulting firms that benefit so richly at taxpayer expense. Congress must ensure it will no longer fund inhumane policy proposals to punish immigrant families. #DefundHate

The Trump administration is deciding whether to allow Yemenis — fleeing one of the most brutal humanitarian crises in the world — to remain in the United States. With the U.S. fueling the devastating Saudi- and UAE-led coalition war in Yemen, we MUST have a pathway for Yemenis seeking refuge here. We have just over one month to build HUGE pressure to make Congress make the Trump administration to save Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Yemenis in the U.S. so that they’re not sent back into harm’s way. We already won on preventing the Trump administration from completely ending TPS for Yemen last year. Let's win again this year AND get a redesignation so that thousands of more Yemenis can be protected through this necessary lifeline.

I am starting this petition in order to get more people involved in our rights as citizens of this great nation of immigrants and born in country citizens to remove the president of the United States of America. He has not upheld the constitution of the United States of America and has done more harm than any other president in the history of our nation.

Kelly is a 23-year-old transgender asylum seeker who has been locked up in immigration jail for nearly three years. Kelly is suffering medical neglect and was put in solitary confinement for four months solely because of her gender identity. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has the power to release her immediately but refuses to let her go. Kelly is suffering tremendously, both physically and mentally. Additionally, her unnecessarily prolonged detention is exacerbating the trauma she has experienced as a domestic violence and human trafficking survivor. During her nearly three years in detention, Kelly has never been given a bond hearing. All Kelly wants is to live safely and without fear. Unfortunately, there are many more transgender individuals like Kelly who are unjustly locked up in immigration jail while they apply for asylum, and are experiencing inhumane treatment because of their gender identity. Kelly needs your help. Sign the petition to demand that ICE use its discretion to #FreeKelly now!

One of the key leaders of Trump’s Family Separation policy, Miles Taylor, has been given a plum position at Google as head of national security relations. Taylor served as Chief of Staff to former Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Kristjen Nielsen, who recently defended the decision to separate families. The full scale of the horror of the Family Separation Policy is still coming to light -- we just learned that 1556 more families were torn apart, while countless still remain separated. According to the ACLU, of the 1556 new cases, five children were under a year old, 26 were a year old, 40 were 2 years old, 76 were 3, and 60 were 4 years old. What’s most terrifying? It’s unclear if they have been reunified. Because the government didn’t have a way to track families. Take a step back and imagine for a moment what it must be like to have your child ripped away from your arms. And then for that child to be put into a freezing cage while Trump lawyers argue that they don’t deserve soap, blankets, or toothbrushes. DHS top employees like Taylor likely saw images of families in tears as they were torn apart, received detailed briefings on the psychological trauma it was causing, read internal reports of widespread sexual abuse and torture -- and CHOSE to work to keep those inhumane policies going. Google’s motto is famously, “don’t be evil.” For all the traumatized families and children -- including the six children who died in U.S. custody -- here is your chance. Add your name to call on Google and all Google employees to live up their values and demand the company do the right thing and stop hiring key players of Trump’s Family Separation Policy. Children and families are just beginning to face the long-term psychological trauma associated with family separation. Some children were separated at such a young age and for such a long time -- that they didn’t even recognize their parents when they were reunified. Add your name now: No person who helped tear children from their mother's arms deserves a soft landing. CEO Pichai publicly condemned Trump’s Family Separation when it was first announced. Don’t back down on your values now.

Subject: Petition To The American House Of Representatives The US government is planning to send a billion dollars to Somalia (a country in East Africa). According to a statement issued by the US Ambassador to Somalia, the money would be used for humanitarian assistance, expanding education and healthcare, building institutions, and creating jobs. Now, this would be great if the Somali Government actually used the money for developing their own country. According to Transparency International, Somalia is ranked the most corrupt nation in the world, tied with North Korea. And according to a UN report, 70% of foreign aid received is unaccounted for. In fact, the United States suspended food and fuel aid to the Somali Government in 2017 because they were unable to account for all the aid given. Now the highly regarded congress must ask themselves, if we can’t trust this Somali Government to distribute food to its own people, then why should we trust that they would use our hard-earned tax dollars to better their county? Not to mention this is the same government in Somalia that has rigged its nation's election process, and when their citizens questioned them the government had them arrested and even killed. When the UN questioned them, the government ousted the UN Ambassador from the country. If you don’t want your tax dollars used to support a nation that can’t even be trusted with food, then sign this petition and let our President and Congress know that we don’t trust this Somali Government with our money. We, the undersigned Somali Americans, are grateful for all that unites and binds us to one another as members of peace-loving and law-abiding citizens. As Somali-Americans, we value our way of life, and our highly developed culture, literature, and language. We recognize the intrinsic value of our shared heritage and we are fully aware of our common destiny. We all know what we share is much more important than what has divided us in our recent past, namely the politics of mistrust and fear. We are saddened by the destruction, death and utter devastation that has been visited upon our beloved country for the past 30 years, during which period Somalia has become a metaphor for a failed state, mired in mindless anarchy. The needless suffering of the Somali people at the hands of warlords and so-called corrupt government, who stoked inter-clan and intra-clan suspicion, and set Somali brothers and sisters against each other for personal and perverted political and economic ends, has been the source of shame and profound sorrow for ordinary Somalis everywhere. Indeed, the good name of the Somali nation has, during this period of misery, been scandalized. This disgraceful state of affairs cannot stand! Excellencies, We urge you to put the Somali nation’s interest before politics, recognizing that no one has a monopoly on truth. The Somali people have suffered long enough! We call upon for a complete cessation of hostilities and a renewed dedication to saving the lives of innocent people and save the Somali nations from so-called corrupt and terrorist collaborators in Mogadishu.

Over the last two decades, hundreds of thousands of American men and women have risked their lives serving in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. For the most part, they have done so secure in the knowledge that if they are killed, their country will provide for their families. For those whose spouses are undocumented immigrants, however, this is an obligation our government has not met. Last year, Univision reported that nearly 12,000 military spouses were in deportation proceedings. Earlier this year, the Trump administration announced plans to remove protections for the spouses of servicemen and women currently deployed. Cuauhtemoc “Temo” Juarez served in combat as a Marine in Iraq from 2003 to 2005. While he was deployed overseas, his wife Alejandra cared for their infant daughter Pamela, now a high school senior. They later had another daughter Estela, now ten years old. Temo and both children are US citizens, but Alejandra, an undocumented immigrant, was deported to Mexico in 2018 despite having no criminal record. Estela, too young to be left alone while Temo is working, also moved to Mexico with Alejandra. Cindy Furman served in the Air Force in Iraq. She met her future husband Demetry, who was serving in the Canadian military, while he trained with US forces. He held US security clearances and later served in Afghanistan as part of the US-led coalition. In 2018, he was arrested in Ohio and later deported. His crime? A minor drug conviction in Canada in 1992, for which he served 28 days of community service and paid a fine. He was pardoned in 2002, but is still ineligible for a visa as a result. He now lives in Ontario. Cindy, suffering from health problems, remained in Ohio to be near her adult children, and is unable to travel to visit her husband. Alejandra and Demetry are two of the many military spouses who have been deported, tearing apart the families of those who have served this country. The Protect Patriot Spouses Act, introduced by Congressman Darren Soto of Florida, would allow many of these spouses to pursue legal permanent residency, an opportunity they do not have under current immigration law. https://www.npr.org/2019/06/27/736362986/trump-wants-to-withdraw-deportation-protections-for-families-of-active-troops https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/557?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%5B%22%5C%22protect+patriot+spouses%5C%22%22%5D%7D&s=1&r=1

Dear Governor Roy Cooper, We thank you for your leadership and valor in standing with the immigrant community. As you said in your swift action, this bill is harmful and nothing more than patrician political tactics to scare our community. With this veto, you affirm your long-standing recognition that the immigrant communities are a vital part of North Carolina. We will continue to work with your office and our community to fight any more attacks against our families! Thank you, El Colectivo NC and the community

We are a group of hundreds of ordinary, concerned constituents. Even though we have been to the representative's office 6 times over the past few weeks, his staff could not even tell us his position on current US policy on family detention in border camps. Rep. Lynch has even voted to give unfettered funding to continue operating these camps. We have also called on Rep. Lynch to push for Impeachment hearings, which he continues to oppose, and to hold a town hall to meet discuss these issue with his constituents during August recess.

The Trump administration just leveled yet another cruel attack on immigrant families with its heartless "public charge" rule—and it's up to Congress and the courts to mitigate the damage. The Department of Homeland Security's newly-finalized regulation is nothing more than a "wealth test" on immigrant families who are seeking a healthy, stable feature in the US. It means that means that if you aren't white and wealthy, you aren't welcome in the U.S. And it goes into effect, it would separate countless families. If this rule is implemented, families will be forced to choose between health care, food and homes, and a safe, stable future in the U.S. because using basic safety net programs—like SNAP—could threaten their pathway to a green card in the future. This is a blatant attempt to create a backdoor administrative family separation policy, and it would virtually close America's doors on anyone who isn’t white and wealthy. The best way to build a strong country is to ensure that the families who live here—who are woven into the success of our communities—have the tools they need to thrive. Congress has the power to take the teeth out of this cruel plan by refusing to allow federal funds to be used to punish people for taking care of their families.
