Last night, @iamjohnoliver covered @POTUS’s proposed asylum ban. Seeking asylum is legal, and a human right.

Luckily, we can take action. Join me in writing to the White House today to ask President Biden to reverse the ban:  https://t.co/4p4XphrcAR

Whenever Israa feels sad or stressed, she starts embroidering as it relaxes her.

Thanks to @sida, @RESCUEorg helped Israa turn this hobby into a source of income in #Jordan. Our business services have benefited more than 1,400 Jordanian and #Syria-n women like Israa since 2018.

Dreams. Traditions. Experience. Reminder: what refugees carry is not all that they bring. 💛

At the IRC, we’ll never, ever stop working to make #RefugeesWelcome — today and every day.

RT to celebrate refugees this #WorldRefugeeDay

[IRC - International Rescue Committee @RESCUEorg]

Happy #WorldRefugeeDay! 💛

When they have no choice but to flee, refugees can only carry so much. But what refugees bring — generations of dreams, experiences, traditions— is so much more.

RT this video—narrated by refugees themselves—if you stand to make #RefugeesWelcome.
