NEW: A 13 y.o. girl from Guatemala got hired illegally to clean a slaughterhouse in Nebraska last summer.

Her life is now falling apart. Lost income. Dad jailed. Mom faces time.

@mariasacchetti and I took a deep dive on her story:

In these difficult moments, we must make sure that people who are affected by the earthquake in #Turkey and #Syria get the support they need, and local organizations are often the first to respond. Here is a list of organizations you can consider:

The Biden administration is openly and illegally wielding this Trump-era program as an immigration deterrence policy, despite such policies resulting in serious harms, including kidnapping, rape, injury and death. Biden promised humane border policies. This is not it.

[Kristine Beckerle @K_Beckerle]

Putting aside the obvious-yet-soul-withering fact that production cuts proved more repugnant to US officials than the deaths, since 2015, of thousands in #Yemen, the #US could use this moment to robustly support credible efforts towards justice for Yemen.

My dept at National Nurses United is hiring again! Looking for a regulatory/legislative policy person (law degree a +) with social justice background & writing skills. Remote for now, Bay Area preferred but some flexibility. NNU is also hiring legislative advocates in Sac & DC.

My department at @NationalNurses is hiring another person in my position in Oakland! Let me know if you are or know someone who might be interested and have questions. I came in with advocacy exp. but knowing nothing about health care. https://t.co/S9frbCvkCY

Another levels of grotesque hypocrisy in #CastroHuerta is the #SCOTUS's logic that tribes can't prosecute most crimes their own land without permission from Congress because it would be anti-democratic.
BUT States...they can be trusted to prosecute people on tribal lands.

IMPORTANT: The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing THIS THURSDAY on the #EarnItAct, a dangerous bill that puts kids & LGBTQ folks in danger, undermines encryption & threatens online privacy & free expression.

[Yemen Data Project @YemenData]

A single Saudi coalition airstrike today killed and injured more than all 1,790 air raids in 2021 combined.

[Azmat Khan @AzmatZahra]

The Civilian Casualty Files—A1 of today's @nytimes—is the culmination of 5 years of investigation: at airstrike sites in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan, a years-long legal battle with the Pentagon, 1,311 military 'assessments' and scores of interviews... https://t.co/uauULKMumt

[Dr. Tom Frieden @DrTomFrieden]

The plain truth: Pfizer and Moderna cannot meet the global need for their vaccines. They must therefore transfer their technology to support production globally to meet this need. That means working alongside governments to transfer their technology. 23/

[HaitianBridge @HaitianBridge]

As 7 more expulsion flights are being sent to Haiti today, this makes the 50th flight since 09/19. @POTUS, @VP, @DHSgov, @DHSgov, @SecMayorkas, can stop these flights, rescind Title 42, and restore asylum-seekers rights. #BlackMigrantsMatter #ImmigrationIsABlackIssue

[HaitianBridge @HaitianBridge]

The mass expulsion of Haitians continues as four flights are set to go to #Haiti this morning. @potus & @vp are continuously showing the world that these Black migrants lives does not matter. They do not get the chance to seek asylum. #ImmigrationIsABlackIssue @SecMayorkas

[HaitianBridge @HaitianBridge]

UPDATE: Three deportation flights were sent out today to Haiti. This is a total of 6 flights in about 24 hours. Six more is expected tomorrow. This is the cruelty of the Biden-Administration. Again we repeat, we will not forget this.

[Kennji Kizuka @KennjiKizuka]

This is a deliberate choice by the Admin to reimplement Remain in Mexico. As @RepEscobar @SenatorMenendez & other members of Congress have pointed out, DHS could issue a new notice to re-terminate & avoid this shameful policy, which has already cost asylum seekers their lives.

[rebekah @rebekah_e_s]

Lots of “thank the labor movement for your 5 day work week” etc. But not everyone benefits.

When the FLSA was passed, domestic workers & farm workers were deliberately excluded. Children can still be employed on farms & farm workers can legally be paid less than min wage.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

NEW: Every U.S. Nabisco bakery is now on strike.

Workers in Richmond, VA say they worked 16-hour days during the pandemic while Mondelez made record profits. Now they're being asked to take crumbs.

They are vowing to strike until they get a fair contract. #NoContractNoSnacks
