Deported U.S. veteran Howard Bailey, filmmaker @Alex_Rivera, immigration law expert @ahilan_toolong & 🔥 sister of deported advocate Tina Hamdi in this POWERFUL Town Hall event live from L.A. as we discuss reclaiming the narrative on immigration @UCLA_CILP @NIJC #ChancetoComeHome
So excited for this event! Please come join us in DTLA on May 10!
POWERFUL piece on NPR’s “Here and Now” featuring two unjustly deported women fighting to return to the U.S. to reunite w their children. Tina Hamdi & Assia Serrano lived decades in the U.S. & join me here as we call on @POTUS for a #ChancetoComeHome 💔💪🏽 wbur.org/hereandnow/202…
🚨Breaking news! The #Opportunity4All Act (AB 2586) passed the CA Assembly Higher Ed Committee today. As AB 2586 recognizes, the @UofCalifornia, @calstate & @CalCommColleges have the legal authority to hire any of their students, regardless of immigration status. #O4All

So many of them were explicitly eugenicist! @ahilan_toolong has done a lot of work exposing the history of the laws criminalizing illegal entry that we have on the books today. The history of Nativism in American politics of this era is still relevant. x.com/jspattonhimsel…

“Today’s decision is a victory for the 1.5 million people who have jumped at the opportunity to sponsor loved ones under this program & it is a critical repudiation of Texas’s attempt to hold immigration policy hostage for the entire country.” -@mylangarica #FreedomToWelcome
🚨BIG (GOOD) NEWS 🚨 “Not only did Texas fail to prove it was harmed by this program, this decision also demonstrates the exact opposite: the #CHNV parole program confers immeasurable benefits to people, families, & communities across the country.” -@mylangarica

Sam Anthony lived *40* yrs in D.C. before Trump admin unjustly deported him. He is one of hundreds of Black immigrants who suffer double punishment. Victims of racial injustice of war on drugs AND our immigration system. Sam deserves a #ChancetoComeHome 👇🏽 washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/…
SOOO EXCITING!!!!! Texas lost on standing, mostly because the CHNV program decreases migration from those four countries. Congratulations to @mylangarica @talia_inlender from @UCLA_CILP and Esther Sung @KarenTumlin & colleagues from @jactioncenter, and the team from @RAICESTEXAS

“To call this moment a ‘migrant crisis’ is to let elected federal officials off the hook,” @JerusalemDemsas writes: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
State leaders must reckon with the reality that DACA is no longer available to most CA students - leaving them in precarious academic and financial situations. The #Opportunity4All Act is an essential step forward to ensure equity for all California students.
#Opportunity4All is grounded in sound legal authority, which makes clear that state entities like the UC, CSU & CA Community Colleges aren’t bound by federal law prohibiting hiring of undocumented workers. State universities can hire these students today. nytimes.com/2022/10/19/us/…
Thousands of college students in California are unjustly barred from obtaining paying jobs on campus solely due to their immigration status – widening existing equity gaps & preventing many undocumented students from being able to continue to pursue higher education.

A fun little personal anecdote to end on. My still-thriving grandfather (who turns 100 soon) was born in NYC just days after the Immigration Act of 1924 became law. He's cited this fact for why he's still so pro-immigrant today, seeing how it targeted people like his parents.

This news is major relief for TPS holders & a direct result of our political pressure! We now reaffirm our commitment to ensure that every TPS holder re-register! & continue to call for the @JoeBiden admin to re-designate & expand TPS to migrants in need of relief! #TPSJustice
@USCIS just said regstrn for TPS from the Ramos countries—El Sal, Haiti, Hondrs, Nepal, Nicrgua, Sudan—will be extended for 18 months. We had to sue and bring intense pressure to fix this, but better late than never. @TPS_Alliance @TomJawetz @TheToddSchulte @ReichlinMelnick
Today’s my first day at my new job as Executive Director of @UCLAReproPolicy! I don’t go in person until tomorrow, so today my coworker is Henry. Excited for all that is to come, and to work with a smart, talented, and passionate team working for reproductive justice.
When a bus arrives from TX early on Labor Day, and our offices are closed, we have to get a little creative with things! Styrofoam cups borrowed from the church kitchen are helping to make this morning’s “Know Your Rights” presentation happen. #WelcomeWithDignity #BeautifulLA
Happy Labor Day! This morning ImmDef is welcoming 43 asylum seekers who arrived early this morning on a bus sent by the state of TX. There are 11 families, including 21 children, from Colombia, Guatemala, Honduras, MX, Nicaragua, Russia, & Venezuela. #WelcomeWithDignity
@JuliaEAinsley That former DHS official says “concern” twice…there is, in fact, academic evidence! If they’re commenting on contrary-to-evidence vibes by some in admin, ok, but there’s no factual basis at all at a new TPS designation for VZ would do this. Evidence shows more likely to reduce.
this forthcoming @GeorgetownLJ from @ahilan_toolong looks super cool. (the "reversing" part, less so the "racist precedent" part.)
I have been head down preparing for trial (!) in Texas v. DHS next week. Listen to learn what it’s about and what’s at stake for all of us & our #FreedomToWelcome 👇🏽
NEXT WEEK: We're heading to court to defend the CHNV Humanitarian Parole Program in Texas v. DHS alongside @jactioncenter & @raices. We're proud to stand with 7 courageous intervenors to defend the #FreedomtoWelcome.
This fascinating new @GeorgetownLJ article by @ahilan_toolong, Reversing Racist Precedent, argues that courts should apply anti-discrimination law to undo its own precedent when it is motivated by racial bias. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…
