Unaccompanied minors are among the most vulnerable in our care. They need zealous advocacy, not government efficiency metrics. Urge your elected officials to press HHS to maintain current services.

✨ This weekend, our community brought holiday cheer to families impacted by separation, giving toys, groceries, clothes, and essentials.
For a day, hardship gave way to hope. Thank you #ThisIsAboutHumanity for helping kids simply be kids. This is resilience. ❤️🎁✨
When you give, we defend. Every dollar raised this #GivingTuesday provides free legal services to people in Southern California who face deportation.
Your support fuels this fight. ❤️

The Constitution is clear: no president gets to decide who is American. ImmDef decries the SCOTUS ruling.

It guts key protections, allows indefinite family detention in unlicensed facilities, and increases children’s risk of abuse, and exploitation.

Come celebrate Pride at the Lincoln Theater in DC where World Pride, @thebulwark.com, and @crooked.com are teaming up for a big, beautiful, extremely gay live show.
We'll laugh, cry, and scream about, you know, everything.
Imagine fleeing danger only to be separated for months from the loved one who could protect you. Now imagine that as a 5-yr-old child.
The Trump admin made sponsorship rules more extreme, making it harder for parents to reunite with their children.

Fighting back against the inhumane and unlawful actions of the administration is a means— a means to protect our communities as best we can— but it is also an end in itself. Fighting back is important in itself, even if you lose. To those fighting—Keep going! You’re doing it!

Disappearing someone does not make them forgotten. We won’t stop our efforts to #BringThemBack. Yesterday, we spoke to Andry Hernández’s mother, the woman he called out for while praying as they forcefully shaved his head. She asked us to keep sharing his story so the world doesn’t forget him.
