John,
The House Republicans' immigration proposal is cruel, extreme, and
unworkable. That's why I voted no.
In a moment, I'll explain just why I felt it so important to take a stand
against this legislation. But first, I'd like to ask you to support our
movement so that we can keep standing up to unjust and unethical
leadership in our democracy. [ [link removed] ]If you can, please chip in a donation of

From day one, Republicans made it clear that they would pursue this
unworkable approach. Their proposed immigration bill would:
* Gut asylum access for people arriving from countries across the world.
* Bar anyone who seeks protection by entering the country between ports
of entry from ever being able to obtain asylum, even if they are an
unaccompanied child or fleeing from a totalitarian dictatorship.
* Mandate indefinite family detention and the detention of children.
* And so much more.
I am sick and tired of this cruel madness,
John, and I know you are too.
The GOP must stop treating immigrants like political footballs and
scapegoats for the problems we face as a nation. Passing a bill like this
will not open up space for bipartisan compromise — but it WILL continue to
normalize xenophobic and hateful rhetoric in our politics.
The progressive proposals introduced by Democrats protect the dignity and
human rights of immigrants and asylum seekers. If implemented, they will
help build a pathway to citizenship for people who come to our country to
build a better life and end our broken, for-profit immigration detention
system.
By creating a more humane immigration system that recognizes the horrific
conditions that force migrants to flee, we can strengthen our economy,
protect human rights, and end this cruel treatment.
John, we must
put the pressure on those who continue to push inhumane and cruel bills
such as this Republican immigration proposal. And I need you by my side in
this fight. [ [link removed] ]If you stand with me, please chip in $5, $10, $50, or any
amount you can afford to boost our momentum and continue building our
democracy rooted in love and compassion.
