On June 30th, there will be rallies across the country to highlight the cruel, inhumane and illegal acts of the Trump administration which is separating children from their parents. Details at: www.familiesbelongtogether.org
This lawless administration has sought to demonize lawful asylum seekers and other immigrants. Senior administration officials have used ICE agents to kidnap children, holding them hostage to achieve political objectives.
RSVP at moveon.org/… to join the ACLU, Move On, National Domestic Worker’s Alliance, Moms Rising, We Belong Together, United We Dream and the Women’s Refugee Commission in rallies across the country.
June 30th is the 50th anniversary of the Hart-Celler Act (aka the Immigration and Naturalization Act) which finally removed racist quotas that had governed US immigration policy for decades. Co-Sponsors include:
