[#WelcomeWithDignity @WelcomeWDignity]

The #WelcomeWithDignity Campaign has SOLUTIONS for @POTUS & Congress to strengthen our asylum system.
1⃣ We must restore access to asylum at the border.
2⃣ Let's fund communities, orgs, & services that support newcomers AND long-time community members.

[Human Rights First @humanrights1st]

The Trump admin’s directive to review 230,000+ already-vetted refugees is a dangerous attempt to terminate legal status & retraumatize families who built their lives here.

Survivors of persecution deserve protection, not more punishment by our own gov’t.

"We at the #WelcomeWithDignity Campaign urge the House to resist the administration’s cruel, reckless agenda & vote no on this bill. We deserve a budget that invests in our communities, helps everyone thrive, & keeps families together, safe, and free."

We stand united to condemn the assault on @SenAlexPadilla.

The Trump Administration had attacked Sen. Padilla’s state and he has every right to ask questions of the DHS about it.

His forcible removal is a stain on our democracy and the American people deserve answers.

[Adriano Espaillat @RepEspaillat]

We just witnessed @SenAlexPadilla being assaulted for speaking out and asking questions.

This is perverse intolerance, and we must not allow dissent to be silenced.

[Kathryn Watson @kathrynw5]

PADILLA: "I was not arrested. I was not detained. I will say this. If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question, if this is how the department of homeland security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country. We will hold this administration accountable."

"Over 235 men disappeared from the US into CECOT at the hands of DHS. It has been 88 days. Their families think about their sons, partners, fathers every day & hope & pray that they are alive"

"We were treated not like individuals w/rights, but numbers in a system designed to break us... We need a system that reflects our values of justice, dignity & due process."

The #WelcomeWithDignity Campaign condemns the Trump administration’s travel ban—a racist & cruel policy of family separation that will keep Black and Brown families across the globe from reuniting & finding safety.

Immigrants detained in LA and NYC are being held for days in federal office buildings after being detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

How many other immigrants are being held in these horrible conditions across the country? ↘️↘️↘️

“This administration is tearing families apart. We’re seeing children missing school because family members are at risk. Friends and neighbors are being disappeared to countries they’ve never seen.”

“It is so important for us to hold the administration accountable. Otherwise, these men will die in El Salvador. This is what we fear. Today is Day 83. Every day that Andry is in that prison, is a day that he could lose his life.”

“These are not removals. These are not deportations. There is no process. Looking plainly at the conditions of those being held incommunicado, they have been disappeared.”
