The below organizations issued the following joint statement:

“Freedom of speech and association are the bedrocks of our democracy. The House Ways and Means Committee’s investigation of The People’s Forum is part of a broader effort by the Trump regime and its minions in Congress to intimidate organizations whose speech they disagree with, and to threaten the very values that are essential to a free and open civil society. This subpoena is an effort to chill speech and association, taking a page straight out of the authoritarian playbook. It is designed to silence not just The People’s Forum but to suppress our collective voice of dissent. But it will fail. We will never stop fighting for our communities, our democracy, and for justice. An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us.”

One month ago, we celebrated Pride, and the joy still stays with us.

We’re sharing a few highlights from NYC Pride, where newly arrived LGBTQ refugees and asylum seekers experienced Pride for the very first time. It was a celebration of community, authenticity, and belonging.

At Refuge America, we believe everyone deserves more than safety. They deserve a place to call home.

We’re building a more welcoming America because no one rebuilds alone. 🌈❤️

As America marks 250 years, we’re reminded that the strength of our country has always come from neighbors who choose compassion over fear.

At Refuge America, we believe welcoming LGBTQ refugees and asylum seekers is one of the most American things we can do. Together, we’re building Communities of Care where every person can find safety, dignity, and belonging.

Because being a good neighbor can change a life.

Pride has always been about courage, resistance, and community.

At a time when LGBTQIA+ people, immigrants, and transgender communities are facing renewed attacks, we remain committed to telling our stories and creating spaces where everyone can live with safety and dignity.

To every LGBTQIA+ refugee, asylum seeker, and migrant: you belong here. Your story matters. Your existence is worthy of celebration.

This Pride Month, and every month, we choose love over fear, community over isolation, and hope over hate.

🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Happy Pride from all of us at Refuge America.

At World Refugee Day Chicago, we highlighted an important reality: while nearly 90% of Chicagoans support welcoming refugees fleeing persecution, support drops significantly when newcomers are identified as LGBTQ. Building truly welcoming communities means ensuring safety, dignity, and belonging for everyone, regardless of where they come from or who they are. That is why Refuge America is investing in Communities of Care for LGBTQ refugees and asylum seekers.
