A new letter signed by 60 economists calls on the Biden Administration to include a path to citizenship for essential immigrant workers in the economic and COVID-19 recovery package. #ImmigrantsAreEssential #WeAreHome

@douglasrivlin

"Undocumented immigrants are our family, our friends, our neighbors, and our co-workers. Immigrants have always been essential, but their contributions and sacrifices have never been more clearly recognized or sorely needed than during this past year." - @douglasrivlin

@douglasrivlin

"As the new economists’ letter makes clear, delivering citizenship is not only the right thing to do, but the smart thing to do." - @douglasrivlin

Is the monthly border apprehension metric the best way to evaluate the success of our migration management strategies? Hardly.

A new regional strategy needs a more sophisticated set of metrics

"People come to America because they believe our nation is a beacon of hope. They want to flee violence, be safe, secure a future for their children and work hard in the nation that welcomed them." - @FrankSharry

@FrankSharry

"This isn’t the so-called ‘Biden effect’ on border apprehensions. It wasn’t the ‘Trump effect’ in 2018 when numbers spiked. It wasn’t the ‘Obama effect’ in 2014 when unaccompanied minors fleeing gang violence spiked." - @FrankSharry

“Catch and release" has been invoked cynically and repeatedly by the right to justify a web of cruel policies aimed at gutting the nation's asylum system and deterring asylum-seekers. And it’s all a big lie

@FrankSharry

"In the name of ending ‘catch and release,’ the Trump administration mounted a cruel and relentless campaign to deter asylum-seekers and deny access to due process."- @FrankSharry

@FrankSharry

"But it’s all based on a falsehood. Asylum seekers attend court hearings & want to be law-abiding actors in an American system that is fair, legal and orderly. Their lives literally depend on their trust in the American legal system to adjudicate their cases fairly."-@FrankSharry

As the right wing howls about “a border crisis” and “the Biden Effect,” some in the mainstream media seem to be following suit
bit.ly/3tHgMH8

@FrankSharry

"We get it. The Trumpy right wing is praying for chaos under Biden and desperate to avoid a media narrative that blames Trump for the chaos. What we don’t get is why some in the mainstream media are running with this narrative." - @FrankSharry

@FrankSharry

"There have been upticks and downticks of border arrivals for decades. Some of it has to do with push factors in countries of origin, and some of it has to do with U.S. policies." - @FrankSharry

@ChrisVanHollen

Earlier today, Senator @ChrisVanHollen & Senator @SenatorCardin announced the reintroduction of the Safe Environment from Countries Under Repression and in Emergency (SECURE) Act, which will give TPS holders a path to permanent residency & citizenship bit.ly/2MLA5i2

@douglasrivlin

"Over the past four years, hundreds of thousands of families have lived in fear as the former administration worked overtime to terminate TPS — the only protections standing between these long time American residents and deportation." - @douglasrivlin

@douglasrivlin

"Instead of separating hardworking families, the SECURE Act would provide permanent protections for our friends and neighbors." - @douglasrivlin
