.@POTUS: Here’s how to protect newcomers before the next administration takes office:
- Create more stability for those here under temporary statuses via TPS and re-parole
-Ramp up processing of immigration benefits and applications
-Rescind harmful asylum restrictions
THREAD 🧵: (1/2) I welcome @AGRobBonta’s letter urging @DHSgov@SecMayorkas to reconsider contracts with private immigration detention centers in California.
Those who use their voices to demand a healthy planet should never be met with violence. Juan Lopez's murder is part of a broader pattern of unacceptable human rights violations in Honduras. My thoughts are with his family.

Honduran water defender Juan Lopez was murdered Saturday as he left church. He’s the 4th activist killed since 2023 for opposing illegal mining projects in the Guapinol area. I strongly support an independent, international investigation into these crimes.

I'm devastated to learn of the killing of @guapinolre leader Juan López this weekend in Honduras.
Juan & the Guapinol have been threatened, harassed, & hunted for years as they've challenged toxic extractive projects owned by the Facussé family in Carlos Escaleras National Park.
@KQED: SFDA’s narcotics lead was quietly appointed as a Fed Prosecutor, referring drug cases to the feds, targeting immigrants for fed arrests at SF courthouse. Public health solutions are needed to address overdoses, not separation of immigrant families. https://t.co/CaBJl6pEvW
Thank you, @RepJayapal - let’s put the sacredness of human beings, especially those most vulnerable, at the center of policy. Tired of failed policies and tires policies by @POTUS based in fear. #LoveOverFear#WelcomeWithDignity
Today’s executive order on the border is extremely disappointing.
Fixing our immigration system means expanding legal pathways and providing the necessary resources, not enforcement-only policies that have failed for decades. Read my full statement: https://t.co/I4eCerWmo2
Enough. If President Biden sends even one more missile to the Israeli government after seeing the apocalyptic footage of headless Palestinian children and others burned alive using U.S. bombs in a so-called #Rafah safe zone, he will once again cross his own red line and every red line of U.S. law, international law and basic human decency.
This is it, @POTUS. No more shifting red lines, no more for calls for Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to investigate itself, and no more military, financial or diplomatic support for this genocide. All Americans are being stained with the blood of innocent Palestinians by your support for this slaughter. It must end. Now. #RafahOnFıre #Gaza
@SenAlexPadilla@SenAlexPadilla I hope that you really do hold accountable the LAPD and the right wing organized violence vigilantes who created astonishing harm and terror against nonviolent student protestors.
Gaza: Hundreds of thousands of children are experiencing trauma, injuries, illness, malnutrition & more.
@UNICEF warns a ground incursion in Rafah would pose catastrophic risks & calls for the urgent protection of children there. https://t.co/zimTJrLHtA
I’m an Indigenous woman of Anishinaabe territory, being sued for $4M, facing 1 yr jail for locking to a CAT machine at Mountain Valley Pipeline, which would serve Elbit Systems.
Our peoples will *never* die. We are the land, the land is us. We stand with you, relatives ✊🏽❤️ #IWD
The American people understand a simple truth that Congress ignores: It is absurd and hypocritical to criticize Netanyahu’s inhumane war in one breath, and provide him another $10 billion to continue that war in the next.

Does Congress really want to provide military aid to Netanyahu so that he can annihilate more innocent people?
Do we want to give even more support to the most right-wing government in Israel’s history, to a man who wants to kill the prospects of a two-state solution?
