John,

Immigrants have been the backbone of our labor force for centuries. From farmworkers to street vendors to small business owners, immigrants and refugees have been essential to revitalizing small towns and cities throughout New York State. This May Day, join us in celebrating their contributions and consider making a donation to support our efforts to protect our immigrant workers and families across the state.
Donate to Protect Immigrant Workers! ([link removed])

Yet, today, too many immigrant workers remain in limbo by temporary policies, like the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which continues to be under threat from MAGA judges and far-right politicians, and Washington’s failure to provide a pathway to citizenship. But President Biden and the state of New York are in a unique position to succeed where Congress has failed. President Biden can use his executive power to grant Temporary Protected Status and humanitarian parole to thousands of immigrants who lack legal status.

While NYS can lead the nation by passing the New York for All Act ([link removed]) , barring local law enforcement from conspiring with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) to carry out its cruel agenda of ripping immigrant New Yorkers away from their families, jobs, and communities. Coupling executive protection and security with the New York for All Act is not a replacement for the permanent protections our immigrant workers need, but it is an important first step in ensuring the well-being of New York’s workers and businesses until Congress takes action.

We need policies that will protect and empower immigrant workers whether they are at work or at home. Will you make a donation this May Day to support our work to fight for dignified and thriving lives for our communities? ([link removed])
In solidarity,
