More than 100,000 Nicaraguans have fled their home country in just the past 2 years. Nicaragua's political crisis, ongoing armed conflict, and being on the verge of collapse make it extremely dangerous for Nicaraguans in the U.S. to return safely. @POTUS #TPSforCentralAmerica!

The United States often talks about “sharing the burden” of migration. But as this excellent piece points out, it is Latin America and the Caribbean which have already taken in far, far, more migrants per capita than the United States. english.elpais.com/opinion/2…

This is a direct result of TPS families who organized and fought back, those who for years have marched the streets of Washington DC and halls of congress to make their voices heard. We will not rest until we gain Equal Rights! #TPSjustice #ResidencyNOW nationaltpsalliance.org/vict…

This year, over 850 migrants have lost their lives while trying to cross the US-MX border in search of safety. That's over 850 friends, parents, and siblings who uniquely reflect the divine. That's 850 irreplaceable lives, an incalculable and tragically avoidable loss.
