Our thoughts today are with the family of former State House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband. We also join all who are praying for State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette, who remain hospitalized. Today’s senseless tragedies appear to be politically motivated. We

When even a U.S. Senator is silenced for asking a question, it’s a warning to all of us. We stand in solidarity with Senator Alex Padilla and all who are lifting their voices to protect our rights and dignity. youtu.be/G-mKheWHHDw?t=…

Closing the LGBTQ+ crisis line is another dangerous rollback of civil rights by the Trump administration. LGBTQ+ youth are 4x more likely to attempt suicide — cutting access to support puts lives at risk. We stand against this cruel anti-LGBTQ+ agenda. nytimes.com/2025/06/18/wel…

The Supreme Court didn’t rule on the constitutionality of Trump’s EO to end birthright citizenship — but once again sided with the admin’s efforts to expand its authority in ways that violate constitutional rights. This fight is not over. Janet Murguía unidosus.org/press-releases…

The Senate has failed to do its job and listen to what voters have consistently shared they care about. This wildly unpopular federal budget bill will affect our communities for the next 10 years. bit.ly/44I6cnN Janet Murguía

Congress has chosen to approve a budget that imposes deep, painful cuts to health care, nutrition and education programs, while extending tax breaks only for the wealthiest of Americans and fueling a deportation machine that terrorizes communities. bit.ly/4eDXhYa

A secure border and a fair immigration system shouldn’t be a contradiction. We support American Progress’s new plan for immigration reform, which offers a path forward rooted in dignity, due process and our nation's values.

Ending TPS for Hondurans and Nicaraguans threatens families who’ve lived in, worked and contributed to our country. This isn’t leadership, it’s unjust and destabilizing to families, local economies and entire communities. nytimes.com/2025/07/07/us/…

Must read article that shows the Trump Administration’s cruel obsession with mass deportation is literally putting other Americans in harm’s way. ICE is all but prohibited from working on drugs, human trafficking and child exploitation to instead go after nonviolent gardeners,
