Trump spent 4 years dismantling & destabilizing our immigration system. His policies tore families apart, and the children coming to our border right now are seeking safety and a chance to reunite with their loved ones. #WelcomeWithDignity
My name is Maria and I have been a farm worker for 20 years. I left my son when he was 2 and I have not seen him all this time. I have not met my grandchildren. Please help make this long awaited hope of immigration reform come true. #WeAreHome#WeFeedYou
The federal governments is now proposing to set up a children’s detention center in Mountain View and we say not here and not anywhere.Join us on Monday, March 15 at 3pm at Moffet field in Mountain View for a rally and demonstration! We need to continue mobilizing to #FreeThemAll
We need to restore the Family Case Management Program. As you can see below, it was beneficial in many ways. Plus, families got to stay together through the process. Read more about it at: https://t.co/GqdGl3zvp6 #FamiliesBelongTogether#MSW52170
#shutitdown This is just one of the detention centers that need to be removed, but it hits a little closer to home due to being in California! #MSW52102
ICE has been jailing immigrants at the Mesa Verde Detention Center in CA for 6 years, despite opposition from the local immigrant farmworker community.
Detention does not need to exist. We demand Biden #ShutDownMesaVerde as a first step towards the abolition of the unjust system
Immigrants are people; they aren't animals! Deplorable living conditions are just a sliver of the atrocities immigrants face in ICE detention centers. #CommunitiesNotCages#MSW52102
Preach! For profit prisons and immigrant detention facilities NEED to be eradicated! The reinstatement of case management is KEY #WeCANdobetter#MSW52102
"My bill ends family detention and reinstates case management programs while removing the perverse profit incentives that allow private prison companies to flourish," Arizona Rep. Grijalva said. https://t.co/6hXcbL22If

The #USCitizenship Act would provide a much-needed path to citizenship for millions of immigrants.
Congress has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform a long-failed immigration system. The time is now. #WeAreHome

About damn time. This facility is unsafe, inhumane, and in violation of how we should treat one another. I'm glad the families have been relocated. We need to shut down this center for good. https://t.co/VZmQB4LGv1
The system is unjustly broken. This is why reform is needed. Even if deportations help the US taxpayers bottom line, human lives aren't just numbers in a system waiting to be exploited. #MSW52102
President Biden has lifted a freeze on green cards issued by his predecessor during the pandemic that lawyers said was blocking most legal immigration to the US. https://t.co/ujKiOx6mJt
