Dear John,
Immigrant families account for 28% of America’s population, so immigrant heritage is America’s heritage. From construction sites to concert to halls, restaurants to playing fields — immigrant communities make America grow, move, and shine. LGBTQ+ people in immigrant families are part of this mosaic that defines our country. June is both Pride [[link removed]] and National Immigrant Heritage Month [[link removed]] . Celebrating both reminds us that our work is intrinsically intersectional, and that none of us can thrive unless all of us can thrive.

Administrative Action: USCIS Partially Walks Back Memo Requiring Most Green Card Seekers to Leave Country
Last week we shared the USCIS policy memo [[link removed]] that states that in most cases, people seeking lawful permanent resident (LPR) status would have to leave the U.S., return to their home countries, and be consular processed there to be able to get a green card. The New York Times reported [[link removed]] on Friday that USCIS has partially walked back this memo in response to widespread public outcry, including pushback from business groups. They stated that the memo was not supposed to indicate a change of policy, only to remind officers of their discretionary authority.
