"Love is an action, a participatory emotion. Whether we are engaged in a process of self-love or of loving others we must move beyond the realm of feeling to actualize love." —bell hooks

This Valentine's Day, we're sharing the stories of educators, neighbors, and healthcare workers fighting for justice all across the U.S. They remind us that love is an action, love is justice, love is truth and love is freedom. 💚 #ToImmigrantsWithLove

“If this can happen in my hospital, where else could it happen? A hospital is supposed to be a sacred space and a place of healing. I no longer feel safe, and now I question whether I can keep my patients safe.” — Healthcare worker in Alaska

🚨BREAKING: Last night, we filed an emergency motion to protect schools, hospitals, houses of worship, and community spaces from ICE. More than 60 educators and healthcare workers from 18 states shared stories with the court about the devastating effects of ICE’s presence. 🧵⤵️

Today, hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets to demand: ICE out! We are deeply moved and renewed by this mass showing of solidarity. A necessary reminder that we can build a world that is safe, kind and just for all. 💚🕊️

Una jueza federal acaba de conceder nuestra solicitud de una Orden Judicial Preliminar, impidiendo que el gobierno ponga fin prematuramente al Parole de Reunificación Familiar mientras continua el litigo en el caso Svitlana Doe c. Noem. ¿Qué significa esto para los beneficiarios?

My heart is breaking for Minneapolis right now. We need agents that are held accountable in the same way that we would demand of any other law enforcement agency. Congress controls the budget: the Senate can & should demand accountability before handing over another blank check.

From attacks to TPS to ever expansive visa bans, the Trump administration is intent on enacting an exclusionary agenda. JAC's founder and director, Karen Tumlin, was on ABC News to continue to sound the alarm on the delegalization campaign and the people's lives being impacted.

Thank you @JoyceWhiteVance for shining a spotlight on our courageous clients and the stakes in this case.
