BREAKING – Young climate activists with Sunrise Movement 🌅 confronted Sen. Manchin as he stepped off his yacht this morning. “We want to live!” they say.

DACA turns 10! But it is still not enough because it’s temporary and not ALL immigrants are protected. I just pledged with @unitedwedream to call on President Donald J. Trump and Congress to deliver permanent protections for ALL. Immigrant communities need relief!

The Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse is a stark reminder: immigrant lives are too often taken for granted. It's time for systemic change that values the safety and humanity of all workers.

BREAKING: We're suing the Biden administration over executive actions that severely restrict asylum and put thousands of lives at risk. These actions follow the approach of the Trump administration’s previous asylum entry ban, which we successfully challenged in court.

Was so honored to receive the CA Latino Capitol Assn. Foundation award for advocate of the year. Right alongside CHIRLA as non-profit of the year. Serendipitous, since my time over the years at CHIRLA shaped who I am as an advocate. Proud of Cynthia for continuing to lead the state work 💛
