Election Day is almost here, and the stakes for immigrant communities could not be higher. This administration is working to make it harder for eligible Americans to cast a ballot, while bragging about policies designed to inflict harm on immigrant families. Across the country, people are feeling the impact directly: aggressive enforcement surges, families torn apart, and new efforts to deport people to countries they have no connection to.

But naturalized citizens, the children of immigrants, and voters from every background are responding in the most powerful way we can: by showing up and voting early.

We at MIRA urge every eligible voter to make a plan, confirm your registration, learn about the ballot questions, and cast your ballot early. Our communities are counting on all of us.
