@iris_kim7 @thedailybeast Iris Kim's analysis of the documentary Beyond Utopia is informative & brilliant. From a human rights standpoint, Kim's review informs us far better than the film about the U.S. role in N Korea causing people to defect & flee. Peter Schey, Pres. Center for Human Rights. L.A. Ca.

Sarah Lipton-Lubet, president of Take Back the Court Action Fund, said: “How many of Crow’s pet interests have had business in front of the court while Thomas was enjoying the lifestyle of the rich and famous on the right-wing mega-donor’s dime?" https://t.co/yJOSFcTmZx

Great to see president Biden and DHS taking positive steps with regards immigrants' gender identity. It would be great to see positive changes to protect immigrant whistleblowers and stop deportations to Haiti.

The administration is lifting Trump’s use of the pandemic to deport asylum seekers at the border, yet have announced a new “transit ban” prohibiting migrants from applying for asylum unless they were first turned away for safe harbor by another country. https://t.co/upW83s1xA0

"To keep a migrant parent detained solely to face a misdemeanor charge is utterly irrational. The trauma it causes is extreme, like using a nuclear weapon to target one person in a pup tent."

On Labor Day, we support the rights of all working people to fair wages, safe working conditions, and to be treated with dignity and respect. That is why we are advocating for whistleblower protections for immigrant workers to ensure that ALL workers in the US enjoy these rights.

US Rep Ted Deutsch: "With the number of allegations each year roughly breaking down to one sexual assault per week for the last three years, clearly this Administration is not equipped to keep these children safe [...] This is outrageous and disgraceful." https://t.co/WX2lgH6R5K
