Friend,

So many of us have been watching the Biden v. Texas case as it’s made its way all the way to the Supreme Court. As a reminder, when President Biden took office, he implemented a winding down of Donald Trump’s Remain in Mexico policy that weaponized cruelty at our southern border, causing harm to tens of thousands of migrant families seeking asylum from dangerous conditions in their home countries.

In a tough time, we’re happy to say we're profoundly relieved that the Supreme Court has affirmed President Biden’s authority to do so. Now, it’s time to end this program permanently.

But first, we’re taking a moment to celebrate this crucial step forward for people seeking asylum and refuge across the globe. So please, click here to join us in sharing this news with your social media networks today: [link removed]

The Supreme Court’s ruling is a clear rebuke of the lower court’s outrageous ruling that even ruled that every single person seeking asylum would either be forced to remain outside the country, often in horrible conditions for years, or face mandatory and indefinite incarceration in the US. We have so much work ahead, but yesterday’s ruling is a long-overdue victory for compassion, safety, and the rule of law.

It’s welcome news for tens of thousands of vulnerable individuals attempting to seek safety from terrible violence and persecution. The utterly horrific loss of life we saw this week in Texas — coming after so many past tragic deaths of those cruely forced into the most dangerous of situations as they seek refuge — weighs heavy on this day.

That’s why we’re calling on the Biden Administration to act with urgency to ensure that individuals and families trapped in horrifying, dangerous conditions can seek asylum and be treated with fairness and dignity at every point in the process.

Ending Remain in Mexico is only one part of building a modern, humane immigration system that welcomes people seeking refuge, keeps families safe and together, and does right by the millions of individuals contributing to our communities who deserve to live in safety.

Thank you,
Todd Schulte
