In the Press — MESE Workers said agents armed with rifles lined them up against walls, demanded identification, and conducted immigration status checks for over an hour. The operation involved multiple federal agencies—ICE, Border Patrol, FBI, DEA, IRS, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives—alongside the Georgia State Patrol. Gov. Brian Kemp once touted the Hyundai plant as the biggest development project in Georgia, yet readily partnered with enforcement agencies who subjected  the very workers who fuel this economic engine to inhumane and violent treatment.  Where is the public response from Georgia's other policymakers and elected officials? We urge you to recognize this is not a time for silence.

The racist attacks against Indian Americans from the H-1B debate are disgraceful and must be condemned.

America is a nation of immigrants, founded on the principle that all people are created equal.

Targeting people based on their race or origin betrays the ideals in the Constitution. (1/3)
