When our Haitian union siblings are under attack, we organize!
Today, House members on both sides recognized their vital roles as caregivers, airport workers, and more. We are grateful to @pressley.house.gov and our community partners for helping make this happen.
Now the Senate must act.

BIG Win! The House passed the #Haiti TPS Extension Act that would extend work permits and protections for 3 years after the Trump administration moved to end it.
Now the Senate must act so 350,000 Haitian Temporary Protected Status holders can continue working and supporting their families.
Anytime now, the U.S. House can vote to extend Temporary Protected Status for Haitians. 330,000 Haitian TPS holders make our communities and economy stronger.

BREAKING: JURY FINDS PROFESSOR CARAVELLO NOT GUILTY!
While some justice was restored by the juryâs decision, the beatings, the surveillance, and the trauma that John and others across the state and nation have had to endure cannot be ignored. #ICEOUT

"As far as I can tell from what comes out of Trump's mouth, they're not supposed to be taking innocent people â good, hardworking, innocent people that we need. . . . I've been knocked on my butt, I'll admit it. I'm really disappointed."
A husband, father, and Oklahoma farmer faces deportation over a non-violent conviction from 20+ years ago, despite decades of honest living. Thousands of Southeast Asian refugees who came to the U.S. as children are facing this same double punishment.
âItâs not a red-blue line. We want to take care of people.â
Residents of this small WI town are seeing every part of their lives hit by the Trump administrationâs mass deportations. But no matter where they stand politically, they're taking care of each other.

Corporations have been doing this for decades. Our immigration system is built exactly the way greedy politicians and billionaires intend it to workâto exploit immigrant workers and drive profits.
Immigrants are essential and they deserve protection.

The Constitution is clear. If youâre born in America, you are an American citizen.đşđ¸
#DefendBirthright #AmericanPromise #BirthrightCitizenship
March 31 is about solidarity, not silence. We stand with survivors of sexual assault because labor and immigrant justice means protecting workers, especially those often ignored or targeted.
Ending #BirthrightCitizenship wouldnât just hurt beautiful love stories like this one. It would deny America the talent, contributions, and potential of the next generation, just because of where their parents were born. No administration should have the power to decide who gets to be American.
Our communities have been terrorized by ICE raids & deportations. Yet some universities are partnering with the same charter airlines used to carry out those deportations.
Tell universities to make ethical choices on how athletes are flown to #MarchMadness: iAmerica.org/MarchMadness#DeIceFlights
College sports are built on hard work, teamwork, and opportunity. So why are some universities chartering flights with airlines that also deport families for ICE?
Our teams and our communities deserve better. Take action: iAmerica.org/MarchMadness

âDeporting 14 million people is both wildly impractical and would mean the rapid collapse of American agriculture.â

This #MarchMadnessđ, students and fans are demanding their schools commit to no contracts with charter companies profiting from deportations.
No one should profit from cruelty and inhumanity.

ICE at airports will only make our airport experience worse, because it definitely wonât make it safer! #ICEout
Juan Chavez Velasco was on his way to see his youngest child in the NICU when he was detained by ICE & separated from his US citizen family. He is one of many DACA recipients whose renewals have been delayed as the Trump admin expands its mass deportation agenda. #ICEout

I was sickened by what I read l today.
Sexual violence is real and has devastated many lives.
Far too many survivors still live in pain that will never cease and with scars that will never heal.
This March 31st is for them.
Bet on families, not deportation flights!

Good news! A federal judge has blocked the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somalis just days before it was set to expire after the Trump admin moved to end it. Somali TPS holders remain in status until a higher court rules otherwise. #TPSjustice www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...
Letâs show up in solidarity to help protect our Haitian union siblings with Temporary Protected Status from losing deportation protections.

Before the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, 23yo Ruben Ray Martinez was murdered by federal immigration agents a year earlier.
The same conflicting stories we've seen with Good and Pretti show exactly why DHS needs real transparency and accountability.

Let's check in on how Trump's assault on immigrants is helping US-born workers...
Too many people, like Emmanuel, have died in ICE detention instead of being able to exercise their legal right to seek asylum and due process. Our immigration system too often protects profit and cruelty over the lives of Black and Brown people. It must change.
