NYC failing it's laws and our communities!

⚠️ Eric Adams’ Department of Social Services provided protocols to shelter staff to let ICE into buildings without a judicial warrant. WE GRADED THE PROTOCOLS AND GAVE THEM AN F ‼️ for failure to comply with local law ❗️

July 7/18-7/20 over the last 3 days @thenyic collaborated to support the @ConsGuateNY Movil in Upstate NY. The consular services they provide are critical 4 the community. This event brought over 600+ people together, making it the largest 🫶🏽 gathering of 🇬🇹 Guatemalans Upstate

[Meghan Maloney de Zaldivar @meghanMZBuff]

So far hundreds of Community members came through to receive vital services. Recently arrived to decades in US. Some drove 4+ hours and paid hundreds for a ride, others drove themselves a few mins. Many I spoke with were here all day and going to work the night shift. @thenyic

Thank you @SenKennedy making Buffalo proud n standing up for immigrant communities. It's a privilege to work on legislation from the beginning and all the drafts and back n forths to passage. Looking forward to the Assembly following and language access expansion becoming law!!

[New York Immigration Coalition (NYIC) @thenyic]

🚨JUST IN: The Language Access Expansion Act has passed the NYS Senate! 🎉

Huge shoutout to @SenKennedy for championing S.3381A that will ensure that all NYers have equal opportunities to exercise our rights w/o language being an obstacle.

@NYSA_Majority, pass A.7235!

[New York Immigration Coalition (NYIC) @thenyic]

NEW: "A modest investment of $150 million in immigrant legal services promises to yield tangible benefits from day one. This funding, comprising less than 0.07 percent of the total state budget proposed by the Governor and legislature..." @CatalinaCruzNY
