Senator @JohnCornyn & the GOP need to get aligned with majority of Americans and support Biden’s immigration bill
bit.ly/3pR5XiD Image
"The #CornynCon is back! Fresh from telling a pack of election lies about wanting to legalize Dreamers, @JohnCornyn has once again returned to Washington to obstruct, block & slow down any & all immigration measures, including those to help young immigrants." - @_mariocarrillo_
"Just a few months ago, John Cornyn ran an ad, in Spanish, saying he supported a standalone bill that provided citizenship for Dreamers. But is he a sponsor of that or any immigration bill? Of course not." - @_mariocarrillo_
"Pro-immigrant talk in Texas, anti-immigrant actions in Washington. That’s the #CornynCon." - @_mariocarrillo_
"Democrats are begging Republicans to work with them in a bipartisan fashion on immigration, yet so far, there are few Republicans willing to buck the Trump playbook to say anything other than immigrants & immigration are the GOP’s number 1 political target now."-@_mariocarrillo_
"Sen. @JohnCornyn has seemingly disappeared from the conversation. Providing citizenship to millions of immigrants will not only benefit Texas, but the entire country. So we're paging John Cornyn. The time to do the right thing and to take action is now." - @_mariocarrillo_

Ahead of #CPAC2021, our new report underscores how Trump’s racism and xenophobia backfired. Take a look: bit.ly/3q6w3yx Image
"Donald Trump is reemerging to proclaim his domination of the GOP and to put anti-immigrant bigotry at the heart of the party’s message. We predict this will be as ‘successful’ as his efforts to do so in 2018 and 2020." - @ZacharyAMueller
"The GOP strategy is clear: use racism and xenophobia to divide the nation and distract voters from the multiple crises we face. Trump and his Republicans are not interested in governing, they are interested in regaining power." - @ZacharyAMueller

"It’s time for the nation to move beyond the demonization of immigrants by the GOP and extend citizenship to those who risk their lives on behalf of all Americans." - @FrankSharry #WeAreHome
"During this pandemic, we all have become more aware of the key role immigrants play in helping feed, care for, and protect America. And yet, our government designates these workers as both essential and deportable. This is reprehensible." - @FrankSharry

As Trump heads to CPAC and Stephen Miller to Capitol Hill, a reminder of how xenophobia played in Georgia: bit.ly/3kmeOrn Image
"Republican @RepLizCheney is calling out the Republican Party for becoming ‘the party of white supremacy.’ Meanwhile, CPAC and House Republicans are calling in Donald Trump and Stephen Miller to deepen the party’s embrace of white supremacy." - @FrankSharry
"In Georgia & in states throughout the Sunbelt, political transformation is well underway. The combination of changing demographics, on-the-ground organizing & the rejection of Republican racism & xenophobia are driving voters into the hands of Democrats." - @FrankSharry
