These are the stories we need right now. Stories of folks like @TareqHadhad - who started over in Canada, found a new place to call home & built a thriving business that feeds both our sweet tooth and our soul: sharing a message of solidarity, inclusion, & peace. Congrats Tareq!

Important new work from our friends @MiC_Global: confirmation of support for #refugee resettlement in the US and of the power of #communitysponsorship. Americans of all kinds responding positively to the simple idea of neighbors welcoming neighbors.
Tim Dixon@dixontim
Some striking findings in new polling we're releasing today: the Biden Administration's rebuilding of America's refugee program is supported by 1 in 5 Trump voters, 2 in 5 evangelicals and 55% overall. Refugee sponsorship boosts support for welcoming refugees among all groups.

👇Wonderful to see support for #communitysponsorship confirmed by recent polling from @MiC_Global. As with other countries, support comes from many groups, for many reasons. A simple policy, with the potential to bring us together in new ways.👇
Gregory A. Maniatis@gmaniatis
JUST IN: Americans support @JoeBiden plan to rebuild US refugee program by +10%, per new poll by @YouGov/@MiC_Global. 👉Support grows even stronger, +22%, when refugee resettlement is linked to the new policy of refugee sponsorship by "everyday American hosts." Thread below...

Incredible leadership from Colombia at a critical time + a huge opportunity for global community to offer innovative forms of support. We can use this moment to learn together re how to expand protection + create welcoming, mutually supportive communities in all parts of the wrld

BREAKING! Colombia announces a Statute of Protection for Venezuelan migrants, granting regular status to 1.8 million people. elespectador.com/noticias/el-mu… Which other countries in the Americas and Europe will follow suit? @FilippoGrandi @IOMchief @bondjk @danybahar @martaforesti

This! 👇 Yesterday @JoeBiden laid out a plan not only to scale refugee resettlement but to strengthen the entire system. He has given us a roadmap of the various ways we can do that from end-to-end. Now it's time to use this moment to dream big & get the hard work done.
Gregory A. Maniatis@gmaniatis
Historic: @JoeBiden will welcome 125,000 refugees a year, commits to visionary reforms to engage community/private sponsors, vows to address climate migration. This moment is as important as the 1980 Refugee Act. Now we all have to deliver. 1/4 washingtonpost.com/immigration/bi…

New EO gives US depts 120 days to deliver plan for US #communitysponsorship system. Huge congrats to all friends & allies who have worked so hard for this moment. And especially to sponsors + newcomers who have inspired us to dream big. It doesn't get bigger than this.

Today is a huge day - for our work and for the world. @JoeBiden announces that the United States will welcome 125k #refugees next year. This is an opportunity to re-build the global system and to empower millions of Americans to welcome their new neighbours. Light on the horizon.

Delighted to see CAD sponsorship in great op-ed by @SashaChanoff in @USATODAY. 15+ countries have introduced #communitysponsorship pgrms, and 10,000s of sponsors are engaging in communities all over the wrld. Thrilling to imagine what is possible as US rebuilds its program.

If only @ukhomeoffice could see the bag of food prepared by our neighbour who was resettled here via #CommunitySponsorship as a refugee, to be delivered to a member of our group who has Covid. And hear her words to me to take care because she cares about me.
