John,
We don’t get to pick and choose when we recognize the humanity of those who are fleeing violence, period. Yet today, the Biden administration announced its plans on keeping Stephen Miller’s shamefully low cap on refugee admissions at its all time low.
This is extremely frustrating. Not only does it break an earlier promise by the Biden administration, it also flies in the face of our efforts to fight for our values: Treating children and families with compassion, dignity, and humanity.
Let me be clear: We as a nation are perfectly capable of welcoming families in a fair and compassionate way. We can strive for better, and we cannot take our cues from Stephen Miller -- a known white supremacist -- who sadistically attacked children.
So please add your name to demand the administration revisit this announcement immediately.
Thank you,Jess Morales Rocketto, Families Belong Together Co-Chair
