Obama: Stand for Immigrant Rights!Please add your name to this important petition on immigrant rights and immigration reform.
Dear President Obama,
Comprehensive immigration reform is essential for a strong, sustainable economy and we need it now more than ever. We call for: • Policies that prioritize human rights, labor rights, and access to healthcare, regardless of immigration status. • The provision of clear and non-discriminatory pathways to citizenship, residency, and transnational mobility. • The termination of policies that force local police to become immigration officials, eroding trust between immigrants and security forces. • The repeal of legislation that fosters discrimination based on language, skin color or any other reason. • The prevention of for-profit detention corporations from drafting anti-immigrant legislation and/or lobbying on behalf of punitive legislation. • An end to raids and deportations that separate families, disrupt communities, and have widespread economic consequences. |
