John,
I'm reaching out again about our rally tonight. Just want to make sure you don't miss it! Hope to see you there.
John,
Last week went from bad to worse. We started with reports that dozens of women in ICE custody were sterilized against their will, and ended with the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
I can’t overstate everything that’s at stake right now. With a Supreme Court seat open and some of the worst reports of ICE’s abuses we’ve ever seen, we urgently need to build power as a movement and demand change. While we grieve for Justice Ginsburg, we must also honor her legacy by keeping up the fight for justice and dignity for all women, children and families.
Thursday evening 9/24 at 8:00 PM ET Families Belong Together is uniting partners like MomsRising and FWD.us to host an online rally demanding justice for women forcibly sterilized by ICE and all victims of our immigration system’s cruelty.
RSVP now to let us know if you can make it.
What: Virtual rally to stop ICE sterilizations and honor RBG
When: Thursday, September 24th, 8:00 PM ET
Where: This is an online rally. Click here to sign up to attend.
We’ll be joined by speakers who have personally survived detention and family members of detained people who have felt the effects of ICE’s cruelty. We’ll also hear from advocates fighting to free people from ICE’s clutches, and discuss steps you can take to get involved.
RBG worked to stop forced sterilizations and to ensure immigrants had basic human rights in this country. It's time to continue that fight by releasing women, children and families in ICE detention. No more children ripped away from their parents, no more indefinite detentions of asylum seekers, and no more cruel, illegal surgeries performed without women's consent.
Virtual rallies are great, safe ways to show your support no matter where you live. Join us and show your support for women, children and families harmed by our immigration system.
Can we count on you to be there? Sign up now to attend the online rally Thursday, September 24th at 8:00 PM ET.
Forward,
