The @SenateGOP bill's restrictionist policies are more of the same- a transparent effort to close the door to asylum seekers in furtherance of the @realDonaldTrump’s inhumane and hate-filled agenda. See part of my analysis in @Forbes @BenachCollopy forbes.com/sites/stuartander… – at Washington, DC

We cannot turn a blind eye to hatred and violence against immigrants within our own borders. Time to raise our voices and hold our government accountable. benachcollopy.com/2018/06/cl… – at Washington, DC

For anyone who still hasn’t realized the scale of rogue @ICEGov attack on immigrants under Trump, check out this data point: 20X increase in immigrant detainer requests to NYPD in Year 1. (Source: Politico coverage of @NYCCouncil hearing.) We’ll continue to resist. #HeretoStay – at Brooklyn, NY

Enough w/bashing immigrants. In order to qualify as #Dreamers, young ppl must be in school, or hold jobs. Almost 1,000 of them serve in our military. They’re often the primary bread-winners for their family, despite living in fear & legal limbo. They’re anything but lazy. Enough!

I will remember this case for the rest of my life. How strangers from around the world came together to help someone they never met. This is the essence of humanity.
We want our @CustomsBorder agents to share that. Ella just wants a chance to tell her story. #BringEllaBack
