• PA Lawmakers: Drop anti-immigrant Senate Bill 10
    If the bill passes the following will happen: Families will be broken up, lives destroyed. Local police will not have the time to protect their citizens. Trust between police and community will erode. Local governments will be held liable for damages if a released person commits a crime. Local governments will be held liable for damages if wrong person is detained, or gets hurt while in custody.

  • Emergency! Trump Could Take Away Food Stamps and School Lunch From Documented Immigrant Kids
    When my parents fled from communist Cuba to the US in the 90s, they depended on food stamps to feed my brother and me. I can’t imagine them having to decide between putting food on the table and staying in this country. It’s an impossible choice no parent should have to make. Donald Trump’s recently leaked draft executive order would cut off documented immigrant kids from essential benefits like food stamps and free and reduced lunch. In addition, it threatens families relying on these benefits with deportation. No child should go hungry based on where they or their parents are from. This executive order, targeting immigrants who entered the country legally, is racist, xenophobic and immoral. Trump’s characterization of immigrants as a drain on the country’s resources is categorically false. As parents, we must stand together to protect all kids from these attacks. The good news is that this executive order is still a draft. If millions of us speak out we can prevent it from ever becoming a reality. Please sign and share this petition today!

  • Take the Pledge: Stand Up For Immigrant Families
    As a mom and an immigrant, my heart is breaking for the millions of families fearing deportation. No child should have to worry about ICE taking their parents away. That is why I pledge to: - Use my voice to speak out against Trump’s attacks on immigrant families - Use my resources to help keep immigrant families together - Use my influence to encourage others in my community to stand with immigrants Millions of families are now at risk from Donald Trump's new deportation policies. Immigrants have been targeted in places that were previously safe, like church-run homeless shelters and even domestic violence court. Many immigrant parents are living in constant fear that going to work or sending a child to school could lead to deportation. These executive orders are inhumane and cruel. Let’s show our immigrant friends and neighbors that Trump's policies do not reflect American values. Take the pledge and join my organization, ParentsTogether, in standing with immigrant families. Start to use your influence by sharing this pledge and encouraging others to stand with immigrants as well.

  • Urge SF Mayor to fully fund Deportation Defense
    In detention, immigrants are often subjected to harsh conditions of confinement and denied access to phone calls, family contact. They are not provided legal counsel if they cannot afford it. They might not know they have legal pathways to stay in the country (such as seeking asylum), and often waive their rights without understanding what is happening. Immigration law is incredibly complex. Immigrants with legal counsel are 5-7 times more likely to be able to legally remain with their families. Every person deserves legal representation when the stakes are so high. Immigrants in detention include people who have been in the US for years as hard working members of the economy, as well as asylum seekers and other vulnerable groups including children, pregnant women, and individuals who are seriously ill.

  • Governor Hogan: Do What's Right for Immigrants
    I have colleagues and friends who are being traumatized by the current administration's actions re. immigrants. In my view this is NOT America! Exactly what is America to look like if Trump gets his way and "America is brought back to its greatness?"

  • Mass deportation is BAD for America
    Our community is 85% Hispanic. We have moved from 4th poorest city to 51st because of growth and investment here. Now law abiding and tax paying people are living in fear of deportation for themselves or a family member. 20,000 Dreamers attend college here and are feeling threatened. This is unnecessary!

  • Petition to Reaffirm the Town of Somers To Be a Welcoming and Inclusive Town
    As an immigrant and a naturalized citizen I am concerned that we need to protect those families live in our Town, contribute to our town, conduct themselves in a lawful way, and have become part of the fabric of Somers, but do not have the status of resident or citizen. Additionally, I want to preempt the intolerance that is increasingly spreading throughout our nation as a result of the extreme politics we are all subject too. The petition is asking out Town leaders to take a moral stand against these actions while obeying the law of the land.

  • Exclusion of Hispanic Caucus from ICE Deportation Briefings
    On Feb 16, 2017, House Speaker Paul Ryan, (R-WI) and Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte, (R-VA) requested that Rep. Luis V. Gutierrez (D-IL) leave a briefing that was being held with ICE, regarding deportations, and the plans that the Trump Administration is working on in regards to the DREAMers. They then prohibited all members of the Hispanic Caucus from attending meetings with ice as well-this shows a clear, racially motivated bias, and is simply unacceptable. Speaker Ryan and Chairman Goodlatte need to receive censure, at the very least, with possible further punishment, if deemed warranted. Furthermore, we, the American people, demand that any persons having Congressional clearance to attend ICE deportation briefings, including but not limited to, members of the Hispanic Caucus, be allowed to do so IMMEDIATELY.

  • Tell Governor Susana Martinez To Keep the New Mexico National Guard Out of Donald Trump’s Deporta...
    According to the Associated Press, the Trump administration is considering a plan mobilize as many as 100,000 National Guard troops to round up millions of undocumented immigrants in states along the southern border. This includes states like California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas; as well as states adjacent to border states, like Oregon, Nevada, Arkansas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Utah, and Louisiana. Governors have the final approval on National Guard deployments. This means Donald Trump’s plan won’t work without the support of Governors. So if we want to stop the systematic removal of millions of aspiring Americans from the United States by the National Guard, we need to make sure Governors in the targeted states hear from their constituents. Please join with me and demand that Governor Susana Martinez does not authorize the New Mexico National Guard from joining Donald Trump’s Deportation Force.
