Friend,

The Biden administration is considering changes to the U.S. asylum system that
are tied to ongoing negotiations with Congress around aid to Israel and Ukraine.
These proposals would be extremely damaging to immigrant communities.

This potential framework includes appalling proposals to expand fast-tracked
deportations nationwide, undermine asylum law, and curtail temporary immigrant
protections. I can’t stress this enough: The White House’s willingness to sacrifice vulnerable people is simply
unacceptable and deeply wrong.

We are calling on Senate Democrats to reject these extreme anti-immigrant
proposals, and instead work toward sensible solutions that live up to our legal
and moral commitments to welcome those seeking safety.

In response to these reports, we are urging all our allies and advocates to take
action and call on their Senators to strongly urge them to stand up and do the
right thing by opposing any deal.

It is critical that we come together to fight for a system that ensures people
can reach safety, no matter where they come from or how much money they have.

Team, please send a message to your Senators to reject
any deal that would decimate critical asylum protections precisely when they’re
most needed >>>

[[link removed]]With other abhorrent actions happening at our borders on President Biden’s
watch, these sweeping changes would further betray the president’s previously
articulated commitment to bring humanity and order to our systems to welcome
people seeking safety.

Our commitment to help those facing crises around the world must also extend to
those seeking safety at our doorstep. We urge the administration to reject
linking the decimation of our legal asylum system with providing aid to Ukraine
and Israel.

Please, we’re asking you to take action today. Please
take a moment to contact your Senators to urge them to oppose any deal that
links asylum to foreign aid.
