Dear Friend—We've never faced a threat to asylum like the one before us right now. The Trump administration's proposal to abolish asylum cuts at the very heart of who we should be as a nation: a beacon of hope for people fleeing persecution. 

We can stall this rule, and protect LGBTQ and HIV-positive asylum seekers, but we all need to make our voices heard by midnight Eastern Time tonight. Click on our simple explainer below to learn how to take action:

We can't miss our opportunity to defend queer, trans, and HIV-positive asylum seekers—a community that brings limitless talent, resilience, and ingenuity to our country. 

Thank you for stepping up today,

Kristen Thompson, Communications Director 
Immigration Equality

P.S. This is not a drill. Act before midnight ET tonight!
