Don’t let anti-immigrant rhetoric drive the immigration debate. Nativist, racist and fear-mongering hate groups are working hard to drive their narrative on immigration. For years now, anti-immigrant groups have successfully infused their message into the national immigration debate. Influencing local politicians and national figures - with the same talking points: "More punishment", "Militarize the border", "Massive deportations", "More Enforcement." This has resulted in dangerous policies that have led to flagrant violation of human rights.
It is time we put basic immigrant, human rights back in the forefront of our national values and priorities! Let Congress and the President know that to reform immigration they must prioritize "Immigrant rights before enforcement."Add your name and message - make sure your voice is heard!

Merlin Brinkerhoff signed 2013-02-25 14:17:46 -0800Latin American immigrants has and will continue to contribute a great deal to our society. We must facilitate their immigration. We also must seek a program for those immigrants who are now in the US, without papers, at no fault of their own, to become legalized.

Reg Smith signed 2013-02-25 09:44:53 -0800I’m not American, but I despise hate and prejudice whenever and wherever its ugly head is showing. As someone said, ALL Americans are immigrants, including all those of European origin. Even the Apache, Navaho & Mohawks etc. are ‘immigrants’…if you go back far enough in time to when they were the first humans to arrive on the north and south american continents. Dont back haters!

Remind them that they are on the wrong side of history, and always will be.
