A look at Cosecha in the last decade...

2013: Comprehensive immigration fails in Congress, again. A group of immigrant rights & labor organizers come together to figure out why we *still* can't win reform for the 11 million undocumented immigrants. washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/w… 2015: After over a yr of strategizing, Cosecha launches with its first training.

Our biggest insight: electing Dems and lobbying for CIR isn't working bc we just don't have the leverage. But there was a time when we did have it...the mega marches of 2006. npr.org/templates/stor…

Quiz: which 2020 candidate said this?

"We need immigration reform that will secure our borders & punish employers who exploit imm labor; reform that finally brings the 12mil ppl who are here illegally out of the shadows by requiring them to take steps to become legal citizens... ...We must assert our values and reconcile our principles as a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws. That is a priority I will pursue from my very first day."

@ewarren? @JoeBiden? @PeteButtigieg? 🤔

Happening NOW: Immigrant families separated under the Trump, Obama, & Bush administrations have stormed @JoeBiden's campaign building, demanding #DignityNotDeportation.

Why are we protesting Biden and not Trump? A thread. For the past 2 decades, undocumented immigrants have been living a crisis: raids, family separation, millions of deportations.

Now, the Trump administration’s cruel treatment of immigrants at the border & across the country has finally exposed the inhumanity of our whole system.
