Happy Friday, Friend! Do you have 2 minutes right now to send a letter to your senator and Congressperson? π©
Weβre demanding Congress put an end to a racist, inhumane immigration policy called Title 42 - a Trump-era policy that has blocked people from lawfully applying for asylum at the US border.
The Biden administration announced that they would end this policy in May of this year. But! Members of Congress are sponsoring legislation to keep Title 42 in place. And even threatening to block funding for COVID until this xenophobic policy is extended. π€
βοΈ SEND A LETTER βοΈ
Friend, we teamed up with partners to put together this letter campaign because ending Title 42 is a critical step in rebuilding a just asylum system.
The US has used Title 42 to expel more than 1.7 million migrants and asylum seekers in the last two years. Thousands of asylum seekers have been kidnapped, raped, and tortured. π
So, if you can right now - take action with us by sending a letter! π© Tell your Congressperson to end this Trump-era policy right away.
Together in action,
Nestor and the rest of the UWD Team
