Friend,
The new year always offers us the opportunity to set new goals and recommit ourselves to others, and this year is no different. The forthcoming Biden presidency provides a critical chance for Americans to realize our role as a nation that welcomes immigrants.
The legacy of the Trump administration’s cruel and chaotic immigration policies will not go away overnight, but on day one, this new administration can begin the process of transforming and finally creating the modern, fair, and humane immigration system that our nation needs, centered on a pathway to citizenship #ForOurFamilies.
Your voice is critical right now. We must ensure that the Biden administration prioritizes a pathway to citizenship for all 11 million undocumented immigrants as soon as possible. Can you pledge your support today?
Take the #ForOurFamilies pledge right now to join thousands of people across the country in supporting a pathway to citizenship that restores opportunity and dignity for our friends, family, loved ones, and all undocumented immigrants.
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of immigrants – many of whom are undocumented – have been on the frontlines serving essential roles in industries such as health care, food service, agriculture, shipping, construction, and so many more. As our country attempts to respond and recover from this crisis, one thing is abundantly clear: No economic recovery is possible without the contributions of immigrants.
True, inclusive recovery for our nation means ensuring that these millions of workers no longer have to live in fear of deportation and can reach their full potential and continue to provide for their communities without being trapped by our failed immigration system.
Our nation will be better off when all the people living and working as our neighbors, raising their children in our communities, and filling the congregations of our houses of worship can feel safe and secure in the country they call home.
Will you take the #ForOurFamilies pledge today? It’s time to step up and fight for a fair and humane immigration system for all.
I look forward to working with you to build a better future for our country, for our families, and for all 11 million undocumented immigrants. We can make a difference together.
Thank you for supporting a pathway to citizenship today,
Alida Garcia
