- 66,000 men, women, and children — the human cost of the election. Since the President’s latest delay thousands of families have been torn apart in traumatic ICE raids. Now that the election is over, President Obama has no more reasons to delay executive action. He made a promise to immigrant communities and our allies that he would act after the election. Ctrl+Click on the link below to sign the letter to President Obama.
Join us and demand that the President provide immediate relief to all 11 million immigrants right now.

- We need Congress to pass legislation, the Voting Rights Amendment Act (VRAA), to update the VRA and to protect people of color and their right to vote. We cannot let Congress play partisan politics and ignore this legislation. Stand in solidarity with our sisters and brothers who face discrimination that prevents them from participating fully in our democracy. Take Action Now, sign the letter today.
