Dear John,

Last week, the NYIC went to Washington, DC to meet with the White House, Vice President Kamala Harris ([link removed]) , Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ([link removed]) and, on Friday, rallied 1,000 immigrants, members and allies to take over the Manhattan Bridge in a powerful show of force ([link removed]) . Together we marched from Columbus Park in Lower Manhattan to Cadman Plaza Park in Downtown Brooklyn, demanding that Congress provide a pathway to citizenship for DREAMers, TPS recipients and their families, and immigrant essential workers.

The need for a permanent legislative fix is urgent for our immigrant communities who have kept our country functioning at great risk to their health and safety. We cannot continue to live in fear or have our lives upended by politicians or judges at a moment’s notice. The recent court ruling on DACA from Texas could throw into question the fate of Dreamers in the only country they have ever known as home. ([link removed]) The time for change is now!

Will you help us protect and empower immigrant New Yorkers by donating today?
Fuel the Fight for Citizenship NOW! ([link removed])

Our bridge takeover proved that our movement is growing and we will not be silenced until we have a permanent legislative solution that provides a pathway to citizenship for all immigrants. We have been waiting for over thirty years and we can’t wait any longer—the stability and health of all our families and communities depends on it.

To continue this work advancing immigrant justice in New York and across the country, we need your help. Please join us in empowering our immigrant communities by making a gift to the NYIC today ([link removed]) .

In power,

Murad Awawdeh
