We urge @POTUS @SecMayorkas to redesignate Honduras, Nicaragua and El Salvador for #TPS, as they face devastating realities, including environmental damage, combined with political crises, that prevent individuals who have fled these countries from safely returning.

[Voice for Refuge Action Fund @VoiceforRefuge]

400,000 people with #TPS are enriching communities across America. They are our neighbors, workers, friends, and valued community members. I am proud to support #TPS holders in my community, and urge @potus @AliMayorkas to redesignate Honduras, Nicaragua and El Salvador for #TPS.

[Voice for Refuge Action Fund @VoiceforRefuge]

TPS holders have stood up to protect their immigration status and keep their families whole by filing lawsuits like Ramos. ⭐@POTUS @JoeBiden must meet their bravery with relief, as was promised during the campaign. We demand @SecMayorkas act now and REDESIGNATE #TPSJustice

[Voice for Refuge Action Fund @VoiceforRefuge]

Children should not have to choose between their country and their family. And people with TPS who have put down roots in the US are #HereToStay. @SecMayorkas @POTUS use your power. Redesignate TPS for El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, & Nepal NOW! #TPSJustice

"Everything I did felt like uncharted territory for somebody like me. There weren't a lot of people that looked like me or came from my community in visible spaces."

We love @Ruwa4Georgia for sharing her story and representing her community in Georgia. Keep up the good work!

“There's a slogan that Georgia is the number one place to do business. I want Georgia to become the number one place to live. I appreciate and understand the importance of economic development…but that cannot come at the expense of Georgians.” https://t.co/n8ulRG6uG9
