This June, we join fellow organizations in celebrating #ImmigrantHeritageMonth and the significance of diverse im/migrant communities in our nation. Im/migrants have been the foundation of American economy and culture since the beginning of the country; we are and will continue to be a nation of im/migrants. Join the fight for the expanded protection and continued liberation of im/migrant communities. In the words of May Chen, “make a better world for family, friends, immigrants, and workers.”

Every child, a beacon of untapped potential, deserves the embrace of universal rights, transcending borders and affiliations. Safeguarding their fundamental rights is a sacred obligation woven into our shared humanity. In the symphony of human rights, ensuring the well-being of every child, as outlined by the UNCRC, is not just a choice—it's a moral imperative uniting us beyond the divisions of land or language. #childrights #socialimpact #developmentprofessional https://lnkd.in/dcy54eVD

In the wake of racist and xenophobic stereotypes being spread about refugees and immigrants, specifically in Ohio, we thought sharing this statistic and article is a relevant way of debunking such narratives. Immigrants and refugees are an integral part of American society, culture, and economy. We must educate our peers to recognize the value they bring to Ohio and beyond.

This is one of the main steps that the Democratic Party wants to do and will do whatever it takes to try to get it done for the Democrats, to control the remaining elections in the United States. There’s a right way and a wrong way to become a citizen of United States. What their proposing the Democratic Party is the corrupted wrong way. 🚨🇺🇸CHUCK SCHUMER: OUR GOAL IS CITIZENSHIP FOR ALL 11M UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS "The only way we're going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants, the dreamers, and all of them. Our ultimate goal is to help the dreamers but also create a path to citizenship for all 11 million or however many undocumented immigrants are here." Source: @Breaking911

Today marks a significant anniversary for me. On this day in 1980, at just 2 years old, I arrived in the United States with my young, traumatized, and scared mother, fleeing the brutal Civil War in El Salvador. As I reflect on this milestone, I can't help but acknowledge the role that political asylum played in changing the course of our lives. Without it, our story might have taken a drastically different turn. It's a stark reminder that the policies and actions of nations can have profound impacts on the lives of individuals and families across the globe. The United States, a beacon of hope for many, provided sanctuary for us during our darkest hour. Yet, it's crucial to recognize that the need for asylum stemmed, in part, from the destabilization of our homeland in Central America. We cannot ignore the role that external forces, including those of the U.S., played in shaping the circumstances that led us to seek refuge. My story is just one among millions of immigrants who have made and continue to make invaluable contributions to this country. Immigrants enrich the fabric of American society with their diverse cultures, talents, and perspectives. Asylum seekers, like my family, are not seeking handouts or special treatment; they are escaping unfathomable horrors and seeking safety and dignity. On this anniversary, and as we go into this year's election cycle, I urge us all to remember the importance of humane treatment and straightforward processes for all human beings, including those seeking refuge. We must strive for policies and practices that support, rather than deter, individuals and families in their pursuit of a better life. It's not only the moral thing to do; it's also in the best interest of our nation's values and future. #ImmigrantsMakeAmericaGreat #AsylumSeekers #RefugeesWelcome #HumanRights #Inclusion #Solidarity
