Goal: Demand an immediate halt to forced deportations, restore protections for immigrant communities, and support sanctuary policies that keep families together.
The Trump administration's aggressive immigration policies have resulted in the displacement of over 1.6 million people, many of whom have been forced to leave their homes, families, and communities. These policies, which include financial incentives for self-deportation and increased ICE raids, have created an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty for millions of immigrants.
Sanctuary cities are under attack, with federal authorities pressuring local officials to cooperate with mass deportations. These actions undermine trust between immigrant communities and law enforcement, making everyone less safe. The targeting of immigrants—often compared to historic injustices—must end.
We call on the Department of Homeland Security, Congress, and state leaders to immediately halt forced deportations, restore legal protections for immigrants, and support sanctuary policies that protect families from being torn apart. Immigrants are essential members of our communities, contributing to our economy, culture, and society. We must defend their rights and dignity.
