This is horrible. We can disagree with someone’s politics but should never become so desensitized that we wish ill to another human being.

Appeals Court Blocks Trump’s Use of Alien Enemies Act to Deport Venezuelans The ruling was a setback for the Trump administration on the mass deportation of immigrants, one of its domestic policy goals.

Breaking News: A federal appeals court blocked President Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to quickly remove Venezuelans from the U.S.

A divided three-judge panel of the New Orleans-based U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit granted a preliminary injunction barring deportations under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act.

This Labor Day let’s remember immigrants are part of US ✨🦋

One of the most beautiful compliments I’ve ever gotten is when immigrant mommas tell me I remind them of their daughters 🥹

We are because of your sacrifices

Trump, Ukraine, and the Meme-ing of Marco Rubio Why the secretary of state’s stone-like posture during the Zelenskyy meltdown might have been exactly as telling as observed.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, MARCO RUBIO!

“[Marco] Rubio, who has been a Russia hawk and Ukraine supporter, has told people he is upset by his lack of foreign policy influence despite being, on paper at least, the administration’s top diplomat.”

As we continue to watch the #StateOfTheUnion let us NOT forget that immigrants and Dreamers are:

Our teachers
Our neighbors
Our students
Our nurses
Our farm workers
Our friends
Our family
Our co-workers
Our church members

Let's remember we are better together <3

Immigrants are part of the solution -- not the problem.

Dreamers like Yadira embody the American Dream. She grew up undocumented in AZ, applied for DACA, studied math & is a math teacher in the community that saw her grow up & volunteers at Aliento <3 We're so proud of you!

Thank you Rep Ansari!

Praying for a safe flight ✈️

Excited to spend these next days with Ashoka fellows to foster collaboration in solving today’s most pressing global problems.

Always a privilege to represent Aliento and the incredible work we do to support our youth 🥰

On Friday, at the rally on ASU’s Tempe campus, Perla Sánchez overcame her fears.

“Personally, I feel afraid for my classmates. I also feel afraid for myself, because I am impacted by this,” she said. “I feel afraid for my family and friends.”

#Dreamers #DACA

So proud of our Sun Devils who showed up Aliento at ASU for our Peaceful Solidarity Rally to send a message that Dreamers are NOT alone.

We had about 1k people who showed up and more than 4.6k people have signed up our letter.

Please support students and sing the letter bit.ly/asudreamers 🔱

Schools are for learning! There no place for discrimination and harassment!

I love America, and because I do we CANNOT forget that the US forcibly relocated & incarcerated about 120,000 people of Japanese descent in 10 concentration camps.

About two-thirds were U.S. citizens.

My heart hurts to know that we as humans keep using fear to justifying hurting one another

As someone who grew up undocumented & is currently protected by DACA I know that all we want is an opportunity to live our lives, go to school, work, & ensure our future generations have a better future

Do we really want to become the country where ICE goes into schools where little children are trying to learn?

NEW. The Trump regime is removing Marines "on standby to provide support for the California wildfires" to the border.

Guess they rather see California burn while wasting resources on the Trump/Miller's border adventure www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

“There are two types of laws: just and unjust. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey
unjust laws.” Let us not forget the words of MLK Jr.

To all our Dreamers and children of immigrants, you are not alone! You matter, and the U.S. you and your family still have rights. Let's remember we have to support one another <3!

Serotonin boost 🩷

Ice deports mother and children, including newborn twins, to Mexico Despite the infants being US citizens, Christina Salazar and all four of her children were put on a plane on 11 December

This is just heartbreaking! People need to know what is happening to mothers and U.S. citizen children.

Before the day ends:

Humans rights include Dreamers

Human rights include undocumented families

Human rights include children of immigrants

Human rights include immigrants 🦋

Not just unconscionable and un-American, also wildly illegal, wildly unconstitutional, and wildly ignorant of how deportation actually works.

As always, when we assess these remarks, remember that Donald Trump has virtually no clue how anything works, and the media doesn’t push him on detail.

Incoming Missouri state lawmaker introduces bill to give $1K to anyone who turns in illegal migrants An incoming Missouri state lawmaker introduced a bill to offer $1,000 to people who turn in illegal migrants to authorities.

This is horrible in so many ways. We can’t forget that abuse and human rights violations will skyrocket when we move proposals like this.

Haha! Trust me, I’ve done it many times

The people who are coming are asylum seekers which technically is a legal process.

We have not updated our immigration laws in a meaningful way since 1986 (I wasn’t even born yet).

We can start by having a guest worker program and increasing visas & having a realistic wait time
