Biden's 100-day moratorium on most deportations was blocked by a TX lawsuit, allowing mass deportations to continue at an alarming rate—especially of Black immigrants and asylum seekers.
Here's a thread of actions you can take ⬇️
1. Sign and share this petition to @POTUS to halt imminent deportations and take steps to ensure families remain together and free in the U.S.
2. Use the social media posts in this #BlackHistoryMonth toolkit to highlight the experiences of Black immigrants and pressure the Biden Administration to immediately suspend deportation flights.
5. Support the Sanctuary Movement by joining this faith leader and lay leader sign-on letter that asks for all people in sanctuary to be free and to expand administrative relief from deportations: forms.gle/fz8VCnA9bbuDY4… #SanctuaryNow#SanctuaryLeaders
