BREAKING NEWS: The Biden Administration extends and redesignates #TPSforHaiti Congratulations to the Haitian advocacy community and the Haitian Bridge Alliance for this victory! 🎉 www.dhs.gov/news/2024/06...

Right-wing extremists like to say that undocumented immigrants burden our economy and don’t contribute taxes. In reality, providing a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers, TPS holders, farm workers, and essential workers could boost our GDP by $7 trillion over the next decade. ✨

During tonight’s debate, Trump should absolutely get called out on his first-term immigration record. He separated thousands of children at the border, detained them in inhumane conditions, dehumanized immigrants, and so much more. His record was a disaster and he must be held accountable 👇

Before the Biden-Trump debate, here's a reminder of Project 2025 and what Trump plans to do on immigration in a second term. From ending #DACA and deporting Dreamers to rolling out a "red-state army," these are dystopian policies that he should have to explain tomorrow👇

President Biden is making an announcement that would protect some undocumented spouses of US citizens. This is a necessary move that will protect longtime immigrants and their families—here’s what else it would do:

📢 SPOTTED IN LA 👀 As we commemorate 12 years of #DACA, we are also reminded of DACA’s uncertain future. We urge President Biden to keep his promise and build on DACA’s successes, keep families together and strengthen protections for all immigrants. #HomeIsHere 🦋

12 years ago today, President Obama created the #DACA program, which for the first time allowed eligible Dreamers to legally work and protected them from deportation. Since then, Dreamers have flourished—but DACA is in danger, and Dreamers still need permanent protections. #HomeIsHere

#DACA recipients run their own businesses, own their won homes, and have pursued bigger and brighter careers over the last 12 years—thanks to DACA. This week is the anniversary of DACA, and immigrant youth need permanent protections. #HereToStay

📢 Healthcare is a human right! Last week Governor Moore signed into law the Access to Care Act, a huge step towards health equity in Maryland. This ensures that every Marylander, regardless of their immigration status can purchase the healthcare they need.

Despite the attack in Buffalo 2 years ago, use of replacement and “invasion” rhetoric is escalating, backed by millions of dollars in spending by the Republican Party. We’ve seen hundreds of ads just this year. View the report: bit.ly/3K1SUr6

The tragedy of Buffalo two years ago is a sobering reminder of the deadly consequences of white nationalist rhetoric. “Sen. Marshall’s repeated references to an ‘invasion’ are already associated with a significant body count.” More from @zacharyamueller.bsky.social: bit.ly/4baWMlA

Six years ago today, Trump’s then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions formalized the devastating family separation policy, which took thousands of children away from their families. It's a black mark on US immigration policy, and we should never forget it happened.

Recent Immigration Hub polling reveals a resounding 73% of battleground Hispanic voters are calling for a balanced approach to immigration reform. ➡️ This approach prioritizes both border security AND providing pathways to citizenship for Dreamers and longtime immigrants.

🔍📊 NEW POLL from the Immigration HUB shows 66% of battleground voters are in favor of a balanced approach to immigration! That means addressing both border security and protections for Dreamers, alongside a path to citizenship for longtime immigrants.

The truth about Trump’s stance on immigration: He talks tough, demonizes immigrants, rails against immigrant workers, but relies on immigrant labor. @tusk81.bsky.social tells us more: americasvoice.org/blog/trump-h...
