Only if they gave migrants human rights for the work and stopped treating migrants as mere economic commodities. The rhetoric of limiting a migrant to their economic contribution is a slippery slope. We deserve rights and status. #MigrantRightsAreHumanRights #WeArePeopleToo

Ben has been left in the lurch by a closed work permit & an employer rescinding job offer after arrival. Closed work permits are bonkers & give employers WAY too much power, leaving workers vulnerable to poverty & deportation. Every $ helps 🙏🏼❤️ Pls RT! gofundme.com/f/migrant-soli…

So can human rights like healthcare, status, ability to work and pick their own employers, and being valued as humans and much more than mere economic worth.

It is extremely concerning to hear that xenophobia is being used to justify a lack of rights given to migrants. We deserve better! You cannot in the same breath say there is a humanitarian imperative while denying migrants human rights.

Humanitarian organizations: closed work permits are a breeding ground for slavery The state: further reduces options for open work permits implying industry specific ones instead. Are we even trying to hide the comically evil nature anymore?
