US Border Patrol touted agents 'rescue' of a Honduran woman who just gave birth. Didn't mention that hours later, they separated them, & with newborn still in San Antonio NICU, drove mom hours away to Eagle Pass, where they're detaining her. Read @latimes lat.ms/3nzADVQ

It is unfortunate that the immigration topic is being ignored in most debates where immigration is one area which this administration completely reshaped, without a single bill passing through Congress.

This Hispanic Heritage Month, we want to uplift the stories of Latinos who have contributed to our common American heritage. Too often is our part in the American story forgotten — but we’ve always been here, helping our families and contributing to our country. #HHM

@AleLaPlebe is currently fighting for her freedom. Last month, she joined a coalition of organizations to introduce the #NewWayForward Act that will push back against immigrant criminalization, end mandatory detention, and limit the jail to deportation pipeline.
Trump is trying to force immigrants to finance his anti-immigrant agenda by rigging our immigration system to line the pockets of ICE. Tell the Trump administration you will not play along - take 2 mins to submit a public comment today! → ctt.ec/Bl692+
Stop Trump's Latest Scheme! We need thousands of people to submit comments to USCIS against this latest proposal to raise fees on DACA renewal applications, citizenship applications, and for the first time ever, create an asylum fee for refugees. --> ctt.ec/ece48+

About 1/2 of all the cases I see at work are immigration related. Many are people who‘ve been on the path to citizenship for years.
Steps that are supposed to be ~30 days are taking up to a year. Some, like work authorizations, are so delayed they’re forcing people out of jobs.
Join us to demand Congress #DefundHate by cutting funds to ICE and CBP and closing their loopholes for overspending. Sign up to deliver the demands to your representatives Sept 3-6 here:
