ACTION NEEDED

Friend,

Call on Pres. Biden to Fight for Compassionate Immigration Reform
<[link removed]>

Sending an additional 1,500 troops to the U.S.- Mexico border will not
keep children warm, comfort mothers, or feed any families.

People seeking refuge from violence and harm are not a threat to meet
with military might. Right now, the presence of armed soldiers only
intimidates and deters asylum seekers, many fleeing incredible violence
and trauma.

U.S. policies -- foreign and domestic -- have created and fueled the
crisis. Whether it's crushing sanctions on Venezuela, armed
interventions in Haiti, or a legal flow of U.S.-made guns that drench El
Salvador and Guatemala in bullets, U.S. policies have driven violence
and displacement across Latin America for decades.

It is inhumane and unacceptable for the United States to greet these
people with armed forces rather than humanitarian aid. There is no
military solution to the United States' immigration challenges. We
need a system that treats asylum seekers and migrants with dignity and
respect.

Today our country faces a critical choice: cruelty or compassion. As
President Biden ramps up his re-election campaign, we have a critical
moment to build something better and push him on the campaign promises
he made four years ago. Can you join us?

Sign now to tell President Biden: There is no military solution to U.S.
immigration challenges at the border. I call on you to make good on your
campaign promises to advance a welcoming and inclusive vision for
immigration.
