We’re glad to have joined over a dozen Afghan-led and Afghan-American orgs across the US to voice the community’s support for the #AfghanAdjustmentAct and share what we’re hearing from our newly resettled friends and family across America: #ThisIsHome.

Under a new ICE program, asylum-seeking families who cross the US-Mexico border will be subject to GPS tracking and a home curfew and will be deported if they fail an initial screening. Migrant families will need to appear for a "credible fear interview."https://t.co/V4dAPPU06y

“If only white America were as disquieted by the evil on which its comfort is built as it is by our demands to be treated humanely.  If only your comfort were not so damn expensive for the rest of us.” @MsPackyetti, writing on the killing of Jordan Neely. https://t.co/FLkK1K2Zze

This has been a long time coming! Our first time being back in person for Advocacy Days since 2019. My own reminder that this is why we do the work #RebuildingWelcome

[Refugee Council USA @RCUSA_DC]

National Advocacy Days are kicking off with a day-long session with nearly 100 refugee and asylee participants for a leadership training.

[senna @SarahSeniuk]

I hope all my colleagues who are doing Advocacy Days prep with me this afternoon are prepared for me bringing speakers so we can listen to the boygenius record. Consider this your warning.

"Anti-Blackness is a core part of the foundations of immigration law," says @Das_Alina of @nyulaw. She is part of the legal team for Haitian immigrant activist Jean Montrevil, who won a big victory this week when a judge ended the threat of deportation hanging over him for years.

[GLAAD @glaad]

NEW: @Twitter has quietly removed a section of its hateful conduct policy that aimed to protect transgender people from targeted misgendering and deadnaming.

We’re striving to make these opportunities more accessible to those whose voices matter the most! Help us make that happen!

[Refugee Council USA @RCUSA_DC]

RCUSA’s National Advocacy Days are just around the corner & they’re looking to make participation for refugee leaders equitable & accessible with scholarships to cover travel costs. Help make this possible and bring a refugee leader to DC https://t.co/Q850k7qlbJ

[Refugee Council USA @RCUSA_DC]

Trans rights are immigrant rights. And building welcoming communities includes making them safe and inclusive of trans people. This #TDOV we call on all our community members to:

✅challenge anti-trans legislation
✅advocate for trans-inclusive immigration policies

Also I’m just forever embarrassed by the absolute lack of basic internet literacy our members of Congress have.

[senna @SarahSeniuk]

Please, why is the only bipartisan energy Congress can muster to target TikTok 💀

This isn’t about data/privacy: it’s a combo red scare meets fear of a young, educated, and organized population.

[senna @SarahSeniuk]

As a personal user of the app and a comms professional* — the way TikTok allows for community building, information sharing, and translation into action is awesome to see.
