[1]Beto for America
John,
On Friday, July 12th, thousands of people will gather for nationwide
Lights for Liberty vigils to demand an end to inhumane conditions that
migrants and asylum seekers are facing in detention centers.
More than 170 organizations from across the social justice spectrum are
hosting or co-sponsoring the Lights for Liberty vigils, and more than 650
local events are happening across the country. Civil rights groups, labor
organizers, religious leaders, teachers’ associations, and people from all
walks of life are joining.
This is a critical moment in history that demands we stand up, that we
make a loud, unified demand. Please don’t miss it.

At the detention centers, teen mothers have been held outside in “dog
pounds.” Sick and elderly people have been confined in “icebox” rooms for
weeks. Babies as young as four months old have been ripped from their
parents’ arms. Kids have died. These vigils will send a powerful message
that we will not accept these conditions in our country.
Key Lights for Liberty events are being planned across the country as well
as at the sites of detention centers – in El Paso, Texas; Homestead, FL;
San Diego, CA; Foley Square, NYC. In Washington DC, people are demanding
Congress end the detention centers and impeach Trump.
Beto will be joining the vigil in Peterborough, NH. Many people from our
team will be at the event in El Paso. We hope you’ll join, wherever you
are:
