Donald Trump is declaring a national emergency to further his racist, anti-immigrant agenda. Congress can and must vote to reject his national emergency declaration and stand up for immigrant communities.
Why is this important?
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said that Donald Trump will declare a national emergency on Friday to push his racist, wasteful, unpopular wall.
This wall is a clear power grab by Trump and is symbolic of the larger attack on immigrant communities around the country. Congress can override Trump's power grab, and it's up to us to make them. That's why we must make our voices heard and demand that Congress check Trump's actions.
