United We Dream - The power of neighbors helping neighbors

 

In this moment of deeply alarming attacks on our immigrant neighbors and loved ones, you have shown up for our communities, Bernardo. Across the country, we’re witnessing the impact of hyper-militarized mass deportation operations, where families are being targeted and torn apart without due process. We know that the only antidote to these threats is community. That is why we continue to grow the Defending Our Neighbors Fund. Our goal is to ensure that no one has to face an unjust, punishing immigration system on their own. Access to a lawyer can be the absolute difference between whether a family stays together or is separated indefinitely. Can you make a donation to the Defending Our Neighbors Fund today? Your support will reach immigrant families and the trusted organizations that are providing legal representation, ensuring that no one has to face this system alone. DONATE NOW The data is clear: legal support makes a profound difference. Over the past five years, 62% of immigrants without a lawyer were deported, compared to only 27% of those who had legal aid. When a loved one is separated and wrongfully detained, legal support becomes a family’s most urgent need.¹ Our community understands the stakes. "Because if we don’t have empathy and humanity and we do not love thy neighbor, then we are lost." "I gave because everything I was taught in school about America—the rule of law, due process, fairness, and equal justice for all—is at stake." "I gave because EVERYONE deserves due process." Bernardo, this is about neighbors helping neighbors. It’s about making sure our families stay together and ensuring no one faces this system alone. Will you stand with immigrant families by making a contribution today? RUSH A DONATION Thank you for stepping up and joining us at such a crucial time. We’re here, we’re organizing, and we’re facing this moment together. — Greisa, United We Dream “Where Can You Win in Immigration Court?
