This May Day, @FIAnational’s @LaRed_FIA joins over 1,000 immigrants and allies to rally in the nation’s capital to demand that @POTUS take immediate executive action to provide relief to millions of immigrant workers and families

Reports that @POTUS is considering Trump-era immigration policies are deeply concerning.
He campaigned on restoring our moral leadership—to cave to Republicans’ cruel demands to gut asylum and turn away refugees would fail to live up to that promise. reuters.com/world/us/white-h…
SEEKING ASYLUM IS A HUMAN RIGHT!
🚨 Urgent call to action!
The @WhiteHouse & Senate are negotiating a spending package that would trade foreign aid for life-saving protections for refugees & asylum seekers.
Speak up in solidarity with people seeking safety:

Diego is one of many farm workers who work day after day in the strawberry harvest in Oregon He shares “in the face of inclement weather, some with a lot of rain, others with heat that is not an obstacle. We fight day by day for our families.” #WeFeedYou

The Biden admin is plowing forward with border wall construction plans in Texas. They are also continuing to build walls in Arizona.
I visited a wildlife refuge where some of the last remaining corridors for animals—including endangered jaguars—are being quietly slammed shut.

We're thankful for all of the immigrant workers who help this country running. Giving thanks is not enough, though — we demand fair pay, safe workplaces, and #CitizenshipNow.

While the POTUS and Congress gather with family, many immigrant families will have an empty chair at the table because of family separations. Congress cannot wait, they must ACT NOW to permanently protect all immigrant youth, their families, and our communities.
Univision has played a vital role in the Latino community as an integral source of information. It is beyond alarming to learn that Univision’s leadership gave former POTUS Trump the most anti-immigrant president in modern American history, a platform.

BREAKING: Texas politicians just passed one of the country’s most radical anti-immigrant laws — EVER.
This legislation is white supremacy in action that will encourage racial profiling and separate Texas families.
If Gov. Abbott signs #SB4 into law, we’ll sue.

🚨Last night, the Texas Legislature passed one of the most anti-immigrant bills in the Country. SB4, companion to HB4, passed the House. Alarmingly, 3 child-centered amendments failed, including prohibitions on applying the criminal penalty on juveniles and family separations. 🧵
Faith for Liberation retweeted
URGENT: The Texas Legislature is voting on SB4 TODAY. This is the Senate version of HB4 & contains the same harmful language that can criminalize & separate immigrant kids and their families if passed.
Texas residents, we need you! Contact your Rep here: act.theyoungcenter.org/a/tel…
🚨The Texas House of Reps is voting on HB4 tomorrow! This bill would criminalize children and youth simply for seeking safety in the U.S., and will have devastating consequences for them, leading to widespread separations and racial profiling.
Act now! act.theyoungcenter.org/a/tel…

Biden's "jersey barrier" border wall is even worse for wildlife than the bollard walls built during the Trump era.
Texas Indigo snakes, armadillos, jackrabbits--animals that could fit through the old steel slats--will be stymied by this concrete barrier.politico.com/news/2023/11/11…

New DHS heat map shows most migrant traffic occurring in areas with border walls.
Places like Organ Pipe & El Paso were entirely walled off by Trump, yet they still see the highest number of apprehensions.
Walls don't stop people. They do kill wildlife & destroy ecosystems.
