Friend,

As we enter 2024, we stand firm in our belief that coming together in these unprecedented times will help us fight for a nation that works for all of us.

As a reminder, our mission is to rebuild and reimagine our immigration system to ensure that everyone in this country has the freedom, right, and ability to live, work, and thrive.

These pillars will drive our work this year and every year:

Advocating for justice in courtrooms, state and local governments, and Congress: From the local to the federal levels, we challenge and dismantle barriers that hinder immigrants’ rights and opportunities. Through strategic advocacy and litigation, we will work to ensure justice prevails.

Building immigrant power: We aim to actively engage and enable immigrant communities to shape the trajectory of our movement. It is essential that we elevate the voices of those most impacted so that they influence and help drive meaningful and positive change.

Creating cultural change: Our vision is to change hearts and minds and in doing so, contribute to a future where everyone can pursue their dreams, access affordable healthcare, work safely and with dignity, receive a quality education, and ultimately have the freedom to thrive.

We want to be very clear about this: We won’t stop fighting until we have reached these goals. We will keep pressing forward until they become a reality for everyone.

We deeply appreciate your commitment to the collective work we do. We look forward to seeing what we can accomplish with you on our side in 2024.

Kica Matos
