John, Right now, thousands of our neighbors are being abducted in mass arrests and detained without the legal representation they need to defend themselves. Families are being separated. People who have built lives in our communities for years are being deported without ever getting to tell their story to a judge. This isn't just unfair—it goes against our fundamental values of due process and human dignity. And we need your help to defend our neighbors and our values. At the National Immigrant Justice Center (NIJC), we believe every person deserves their day in court. That's why our legal teams are working around the clock to: - Provide emergency legal consultations to prevent family separation
- Represent detained immigrants who would otherwise face deportation alone
- Challenge warrantless arrests through federal litigation
- Educate community members about their rights through our Know Your Rights program
But we can't do this critical work without you. Today on GivingTuesday, your donation directly defends due process: - $2,500 frees a parent from immigration jail
- $500 educates community members through a Know Your Rights presentation
- $300 screens 10 people for a workshop to apply for asylum
- $100 provides expert legal help for a family fighting to stay together
- $50 provides a legal consultation by phone
As the rules keep changing without warning and families live in fear, your support ensures that fairness and access to counsel remain constant. Every dollar makes a difference! Will you donate today to help defend due process and dignity for our community members? Give now at https://immigrantjustice.org/GivingTuesday | |
Every person—regardless of where they were born—deserves dignity, due process, and the chance to tell their story. Thank you for standing up to defend your neighbors. In solidarity, Mayon Yen
