JFI Action Alert to the U.S. Senate on Further COVID-19 Relief Actions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Use Your Voice to Make Sure All Are Included:
Urge Senators to Act on COVID-19 Relief that Includes Immigrants and Refugees
Justice for Immigrants Colleagues,
We as a country continue in our struggle against COVID-19 and stand by all who are
impacted during this difficult time. Many of the people who are working in jobs
deemed essential - including in agriculture, package delivery, food processing,
and in medical care - are immigrants and refugees. They work long hours to ensure
that you can put food on your table, receive your mail and online deliveries, and
provide high level healthcare. They need to be protected. While there have been
several legislative efforts to help our country address COVID-19, immigrants and
refugees have largely been excluded from this assistance. We must do more to ensure
that no one is left behind and that everyone is safe.
We note the House's efforts to move additional COVID-19 support to the country through
the HEROES Act and we now urge the Senate to move forward with legislation. It is
vital that you reach out to your Senators and urge them to move forward with legislation
that will assist those most in need.
What you can do to support immigrants and refugees:

* Please fill out our action alert [[link removed]]
to let your Senator know that protections for immigrants and refugees need to be
included in the next COVID-19 relief package.
* Use these talking points [[link removed]]
when engaging your Senators, whose support is needed to pass further life-saving
legislation.
* Visit the Justice for Immigrant's Coronavirus resource page [[link removed]]
to learn more about COVID-19's migration impact and the ways in which you can help.
* Set time aside to pray the Rosary for Vulnerable Migrant Populations [[link removed]].
During this difficult time immigrants and refugees need your support in the effort
to ensure passage of further, much needed, COVID-19 relief. Please feel free to
reach out to Tony Cube should have you have any questions at [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]].
In Solidarity,
Tony Cube
