It's gotten ZERO attention but this law authorizes state AGs like Ken Paxton to seek court orders forcing the executive branch to detain and deport specific people, overturn individual humanitarian parole decisions, and most worryingly, cease issuing visas to entire countries.

Mustafa Jumale No, because it authorizes lawsuits to enforce INA 243(d), which allows visa sanctions for recalcitrant countries. x.com/ReichlinMelnic…

The House just passed the #LakenRileyAct—a devastating blow to human rights and the core values of compassion and asylum. This cruel legislation targets vulnerable migrants and asylum seekers, denying them safety and dignity. We must fight back. #DefendAsylum #StopLakenRileyAct

like clockwork, Angie Craig (MN) is on this list of deplorables

The NYS Legislature must prioritize passing 4 bills this session to protect NY immigrant communities: 🗽New York for All Act 💪Dignity Not Detention Act ⚖️Access to Representation Act 🤲Clemency Justice Act Do you hear us Governor Kathy Hochul?

lol to this beat dubbing a Trump hate speech into gay techno: m.youtube.com/watch?v=dkudbc…

Senator Warnock, the Laken Riley Act has zero to do with “our broken immigration system.” Zip. Nada. Please read the bill, it’s 8 pages, you’ll see for yourself.

Hundreds gathered on the steps of the New York State capitol building in Albany demanding justice for immigrant communities across the state, 12 days before President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration. By Fisayo Okare for Documented documentedny.com/2025/01/09/imm…

Fuck Ruben Gallego, John Fetterman, and the rest of the Democratic caucus that is happy to throw vulnerable populations under the bus when it becomes politically expedient. Absolute scumbags.

The ecocide, the fires, the death of Mother Earth will stop when capitalist imperialist extractivism ends. We must build together to stop these profiteers now!

$8.00 for eggs. It’s time to buy some chickens.

This man wants to defund DC, and you’re going to have an inauguration metro card with Trump’s face? Yikes…

110 years old and still fighting for justice 💔

The scene in Ciudad Juarez as migrants learned their CBP One appointments had been canceled right after Donald Trump was sworn in “I don’t know what I’m going to do with my life from this point forward," Margelis Tinoco told her daughter through tears. dallasnews.com/news/politics/…

All people in the U.S., including undocumented immigrants, have Constitutional rights and protections. These flyers explain your rights in various places and contexts. Please share: cliniclegal.org/resources/prot…

Not that it matters at this point, but refugees are one of the most vetted populations.

Does this mean the snoop dog red wine isn’t going to be on display this Black history month?

While the president and his white-nationalist allies attacked immigrant communities this past week, Council Member Shahana Hanif was fighting to pass legislation to keep NYC out of Trump’s deportation machine. This is leadership. This is being progressive. This is being brave.

If Britain hates accepting refugees so much, then perhaps we should stop creating refugees.
