Dear John,

Everyone deserves to live in safety and peace—no matter where they were born or where they reside. Migration is a human right, and we need laws and policies that reflect this.
On Dec. 10 (International Human Rights Day) through Dec. 18 (International Migrants Day), AFSC and partners will host actions across the country [link removed] to demand that the right to migrate be respected. We’ll hold vigils, pack food bags, and much more. Join us as we celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and recognize the rights of all migrants to be treated with dignity and respect.
