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!

Nancie Chalmers Herbst signed 2013-02-22 12:08:33 -0800This is the land of justice, liberty, and freedom for all. We are all descendents of immigrants who came here and took over the natural homes and lives of native americans. Were they here legally or illegally as so many murdered native indians for their land and goods? Now the government allows dangerous policies based on prejudice and disregard for basic decent establishment of human rights of these mexican americans who crossed an invisible border between Mexico and US, on land that in many instances were stolen from Mexico itself.

Bonnie Price signed 2013-02-22 12:07:59 -0800The racism and ignorance in these voices left me disgusted, astounded, and disturbed. Interest convergence theory posits that white people will support racial justice only to the extent it benefits them. This is confirmed by these voices.

Gogi Tan signed 2013-02-22 11:59:59 -0800Ignorant assholes. All Americans (with an exception of one group) are some form of immigrants. If you were lucky to be born here, your parents, grand parents or grand parents migrated here from somewhere else. Were the European settlers coming here “legally”?
-
Enzo Bard signed 2013-02-22 11:59:18 -0800ALL immigrants, regardless of having documentation or not, are human beings with all the inherent rights. This is in spite of the vociferous cries of the descendants of immigrants that only know how to vomit their racist utterances.
