MILLIONS AND MILLIONS of moms, over the last several years, have received a handwritten postcard from a MomsRising mom, urging them to vote. Our powerful mom-to-mom postcard program has been running (and growing!) for 8 years now, and it is one of our most beloved programs.
Take Action
Moms know how important our immigrant community members are in keeping our families and kids healthy.
This bill would deter immigrants from reporting sexual assault or domestic violence to the police and put members of our community at risk of deportation! It would erode community trust in law enforcement, making our communities less safe and increase racial profiling and family separation. Something as simple as a traffic violation, requiring no jail time, can put people on track for deportation, blurring the lines between the criminal system and the immigration system.
As caring people, we all want the same thing – a safe place for our families to live and thrive. We all want our children to live in peace and safe from danger. But lawmakers in the NC Senate are voting as soon as Tuesday morning on a bill that could endanger many immigrant children and families! North Carolina House Bill 10 would force local sheriffs to collaborate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). This would deter immigrants from reporting sexual assault or domestic violence to the police and put members of our community at risk of deportation! Something as simple as a traffic violation, requiring no jail time, can put people on track for deportation, blurring the lines between the criminal system and the immigration system.
Join MomsRising and send a letter to your local paper to set the record straight, immigrants make our economy, workforce, and communities stronger!
