Today’s Action: Keep the path to citizenship open
First, Trump went after Muslims, closing access to our country for millions. Next, he went after DACA recipients, and asylum seekers and their children within our borders. Now, he is taking the next ‘logical’ step: attacking our legal immigrants and threatening their rightful path to greencards and citizenship.
Trump policy advisor Stephen Miller announced earlier this week a plan to penalize legal immigrants who have accepted any social service (food stamps, Affordable Care Act, Children’s Health Insurance Program, the earned income tax credit and more), allowing this to be grounds for denial of citizenship, green cards, and residency visas. Not only that, but these may be denied even if the service or program was only used by a family member of the applicant.
This is a clear smear campaign against immigrants who, by the way, contribute billions in tax dollars, stimulate the economy, and have every right to access these services just as citizens do. Denying greencards and citizenship to immigrants will affect around 20 million, moving us one step closer to a kind of citizen caste system…where MAGA hats are on top.
This plan will not require Congressional approval…but we used public pressure effectively enough to stop family separation, and we can do it again with this. Call or email your members of Congress and tell them to make a strong public statement against Stephen Miller’s plan to deter the path to citizenship and visa for 20 million immigrants.
Let’s make one thing clear. Nearly every step Trump has taken since entering office has been to keep his white voters and whiteness in supreme authority in our country. We are not in a battle against him on individual issues of immigration and border policy — we are fighting to preserve our highest of all values, that all men and women are created equal. Even without Trump, we as a society are still striving upwards to truly achieve this goal…but with Trump, our fight is to limit the regression of this value as much as we can.
