“That is 100% illegal,” said @adam_wola. “These are people who may face a danger to their lives on the other side of the border. Forcing them back, especially if they have set foot on U.S. soil, goes against the Refugee Act of 1980.” #WelcomeWithDignity
Members of the Texas National Guard ordered hundreds of asylum-seekers from U.S. territory back into Mexico in apparent violation of U.S. law. elpasotimes.com/story/news/2…

"Examining the U.S. immigration system’s impact on Black immigrants & meaningfully addressing systemic, anti-Black racism is a start. Establishing a White House Taskforce on Black Migration and adequately [funding] this effort is equally necessary" -@Haddy_Ja2 & Anika Forrest.
As we approach 2 years since the horrors against Haitian migrants in #DelRio, FCNL's Anika Forrest & @UndocuBlack's Haddy Gassama remind us that we can't continue "overlook, undercount, and/or willfully erase" the plight of Black immigrants.

CAN joined 400 other organizations in asking the Biden Administration to redesignate TPS and help thousands of our neighbors in the DMV stay in our communities. @POTUS @SecMayorkas #TPSJustice #immigration
.@POTUS @SecMayorkas, you have an opportunity to keep families in the U.S. together while also boosting the U.S. economy. Each day of delaying TPS designations is a humanitarian and economic loss for all of us. #TPSJustice now! 🇸🇻🇳🇮🇭🇳🇳🇵🇬🇹🇻🇪 wearecasa.org/400-orgs-tps-s…

Rather than more policies that punish migrant families for seeking asylum, we call on the administration to uphold and protect the human rights of all people seeking safety.

📣 The White House is requesting from Congress more than 2 billion additional dollars for DHS to fund, among other things, new and misleadingly named “community-based residential centers” that would essentially reinstate family detention. #DefundHate
