This , let's not only extend our support to refugees worldwide but also commit to ending stigma right here in America. LGBTIQ+ individuals seeking refuge often face additional hurdles, including discrimination and misunderstanding.

Let's work together to create a more inclusive society where everyone, regardless of background, can find acceptance and support.

If you are interested in helping get immigrants out of detention, check out Prairielands Freedom Fund. This Iowa-based organization provides bonds and pretrial bails to free people from detention.

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked Iowa’s law criminalizing immigrants, meaning it will not go into effect on July 1. While this is only a temporary ruling, the injunction was granted because the law is likely to be permanently struck down.

We’re grateful for our community for showing up last week on hearing day (pictured). We stand strong knowing we stand with families who belong together. Onward 🧡

Last week, members of Improve The Dream met with senior White House administration officials to continue our discussion on administrative solutions to protection children of long-term visa holders and other long-term residents.

Over 250,000 American-raised and educated children face uncertainty due to our broken legal immigration system. Despite growing up in the United States with lawful status, they face leaving the only country they’ve known. We have advocated for the bipartisan America’s Children Act, which would permanently end aging out. Our hope is that until that can pass, the administration use all executive actions necessary to improve this situation.
