Dear John,
At approximately 2:30 p.m. EDT and on the eve of the 249th celebration of our nation’s independence, the U.S. House of Representatives, in a vote of 218-214, passed Trump’s devasting domestic policy agenda. The bill will be signed into law at a White House signing ceremony tomorrow—July 4.
We will provide more analysis of the impact of this legislation next week. In the meantime, here is a summary of the bill provided to us by our friends at National Immigration Law Center (and some of their partners).
In the face of this full-on attack on the civil and human rights of millions of folks in this country, we must not lose sight of the fact that Freedom is always worth fighting for!
In solidarity,
Rev. Cynthia Owen Jarrold
Sr. Advisor for Funding Strategies and External Affairs |
