The deadly consequences of normalizing the racist “Replacement” theory: bit.ly/3b5xSql
"Conservative media figures and a growing number of Republican elected officials are normalizing and advancing a radical and racist conspiracy theory that has motivated unhinged followers to kill innocent people." - @FrankSharry
"As the trial in Charlottesville and the anniversary of the Tree of Life massacre remind us this week, there is a real world body count associated with the ‘replacement theory’ and ‘invasion’ language." - @FrankSharry
"The mainstreaming of replacement theory goes beyond our usual political divisions and is a dangerous threat to the very foundations of our democracy in a multiracial and multiethnic society." - @FrankSharry
.@IntegrityforUSA is leading a lawsuit against the white supremacist leaders that organized the violence that led to the death of Heather Heyer and injured at least 19 others in Charlottesville in 2017.

Immigration reform is back in the news. The demand for legislative action this year continues to grow. It’s up to Democrats to use their majority to deliver for people who are Americans in all but paperwork.

"Undocumented immigrants strengthen our communities, have risked their lives to keep us safe and fed during the pandemic, and are our friends, family and neighbors. But our outdated and dysfunctional immigration system hasn’t been updated in 35 years." - @FrankSharry
"Democrats have made promises election cycle after election cycle, but in crunch moments have expended little political capital to make progress. This is the year they need to deliver. They have 51 Senate votes and 220 House votes, everything they need." - @FrankSharry

PSA: @JohnCornyn is infamous within the immigration policy world for always talking a good game about passing immigration reform even though he has spent the last decade blocking any meaningful legislation. #CornynCon

Read more: bit.ly/3igiw70
Cornyn is a key player in the continued failure to pass immigration reform because of his repeated history of voting against many legislative attempts, such as the 2010 Dream Act.

He also created a false narrative about himself, purporting to care about Dreamers to his Spanish-speaking audience, all while presenting contradictory beliefs to English-speaking audiences.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott is playing political games with vulnerable kids
bit.ly/3pfKNfF
"Our priority must be to ensure the safety of every child that is seeking asylum or refuge. Gov. Abbott’s priority is his own political career. Clearly, Abbott doesn’t care about the well-being of asylum-seeking children." - @_mariocarrillo_
"This political ploy will only further endanger children who are already fleeing dangerous situations in their home country." - @_mariocarrillo_

If Republicans plan to deploy immigration to win in 2022, why did they shy away from the issue in a border state special election?
bit.ly/3pciYVk
"Too many pundits - and more than a few Democrats - seem to believe that immigration is a wedge issue Republicans will deploy effectively in 2022. But these observers ignore the fact that the issue has been litigated in recent elections, and the results are in." - @FrankSharry
"Immigration mobilizes white grievance voters to turn out and it mobilizes a multiracial coalition to turn out to reject racism and xenophobia." - @FrankSharry

Are President Biden and the Democrats serious about undoing the legacy of Stephen Miller and Donald Trump’s relentless effort to keep out legal immigrants and deny citizenship?

According to a front-page @nytimes piece over the weekend, the answer is yes.
bit.ly/3yXMd2S Image
"With his considerable megaphone, President Biden is reinforcing why we need to turn the page on Trump’s cruelty, allow citizenship & legal immigration to flourish, & build towards a fair and generous immigration system." - @douglasrivlin
"A multiracial majority elected this President and the Democrats to do big things to help the country, improve lives and help us recover from the twin traumas of Donald Trump’s presidency and the COVID-19 pandemic." - @douglasrivlin
