This Veterans Day, we honor all of the service members who put their lives on the line to defend this country, including immigrants and members of mixed status families.

Immigrant veterans and their families are being detained and deported across the U.S. They should have a pathway to citizenship.

[FWD.us @FWDus]

Learn the facts and share how our criminal justice system disproportionately harms veterans.

[FWD.us @FWDus]

This Veterans Day, we’re acknowledging how the criminal justice system routinely fails the people who put their lives on the line. When service members return home carrying the invisible wounds of war, our justice system too often responds with incarceration, instead of treatment and real second chances.

Thank you, @RepJeffries, for your leadership in calling for the hundreds of billions that went to ICE and CBP to be reallocated and invested in healthcare, food assistance, and other critical programs that will bring down costs for American families.
