2025 has arrived, and with it, new challenges for domestic workers, our families, and our communities. While the year ahead will test our resilience, we remain clear on one thing: our commitment to protecting and uplifting domestic workers, care workers, and immigrant workers will never waver .

This year, NDWA will fight to:

* Protect care programs like Medicaid and Medicare from devastating cuts.
* Defend immigrant workers from cruel deportation policies and threats to citizenship.
* Win state-level victories to secure better wages, stronger protections, and dignity for domestic workers.

Together, we’ve faced tough challenges—and we’ve overcome them. As 2025 begins, we’re ready to take on whatever lies ahead, and it all starts with you.

COMMIT TO CARE AND DIGNITY → [[link removed]]

By signing this commitment, you’re pledging to take at least two actions this quarter to support domestic workers. [[link removed]] Whether it’s calling your representatives, signing petitions, or attending events, every step you take helps protect care, defend immigrant workers, and demand dignity for all.

At its heart, our movement is about care and dignity—for the domestic workers who make all other work possible.

But the forces working against us are relentless. The same anti-care champions who want to weaken programs like Medicaid are pushing policies that harm immigrant workers, families, and communities. Their attacks on our most vulnerable workers are part of a broader effort to undermine our values and reverse the progress we’ve fought so hard to achieve.

We aren’t afraid of a challenge. Just as we always have, we’ll fight to protect care, defend immigrant workers, and win rights for domestic workers. But we can’t do it alone—we need you with us.

COMMIT TO CARE AND DIGNITY → [[link removed]]

In 2025, our efforts will focus on three key areas:

* Federal Fights: We’ll work to stop devastating cuts to Medicaid and defend immigrant workers from cruel deportation policies.
* State Campaigns: We’ll push for Domestic Workers’ Bills of Rights in Washington, Maine, and beyond, while continuing bold campaigns for higher wages.
* Community Power: We’ll share the human stories of care and immigration to show the world why respect is non-negotiable.

Here’s the truth: we’ll only succeed if we stand together . The fight for care and dignity is the fight for resilience—for safeguarding what matters most and standing strong against efforts to divide and devalue us.

Your Actions Make the Difference

Every action you take—every petition you sign, call you make, or event you attend—helps protect care, uphold dignity, and build a future where every worker is valued.

The majority of domestic workers sit at the center of some of our nation’s most decisive issues because of who they are and what they do: they are women – mostly women of color, immigrants, mothers, and low-wage workers. They are impacted by almost every policy affecting the future of our economy, democracy and country.

Domestic workers can lead us toward a new, inclusive vision for the future for all of us -- and your grassroots support is the fuel that can get us there.
