Yesterday, ICE shot another one of our neighbors while his 5-year-old son was in the car. Every day, our communities are left vulnerable to the violent actions of immigration enforcement. Citizenship is the only solution to these ongoing tragedies!

It has been a year since Ya’kub Ira Vijandre, a Dallas-area activist and former DACA recipient, was detained after ICE revoked his status over social media posts. Ya’kub’s indefinite detention is a reminder that citizenship is the only solution to mass delegalization and detention.
Students have always been on the frontlines of change, but our generation is facing a wave of attacks. -The federal government has sued 24 states (& Washington D.C.) over in-state tuition. -College is getting more expensive -Federal agents on campus threaten our safety
Over 70 student leaders from across the country came together for our National Membership Convening in Chicago. 🧡 Together, we strategized around some of the most pressing issues we’re facing on our campuses today and honored the legacy and lessons of student movements that came before us.
From farmworkers and immigrant youth to families fighting for fair housing and better schools, organizing has always been part of our heritage. Today, we’re organizing for more stability and for the freedom to build our families, careers, communities, and futures.
As students, we are facing a wave of attacks designed to silence us, bury us in debt, make college less affordable, and push higher education further out of reach. If you’re ready to join us, text ‘CAMPUS’ to 787-57 to organize.

Pastor Molis Augustave spent a decade preaching and organizing with his neighbors. After TPS for Haiti ended, he was left without protections. Pastor Molis was later pulled over for a burnt out headlight. Local police alerted federal immigration agents who then detained and deported him to Haiti.
The federal government is doing everything it can to make college more expensive and further out of reach for working students. Every student with dreams of going to college deserves a fair shot at making that dream a reality. Text POWERED to 787-57.
Karen has taught elementary school for almost a decade. She filed her DACA renewal months early, but it was not processed in time, and as a result, she was forced to take unpaid leave from work.
We honor Mario’s life and our hearts are with his family and his children. Everyday, our communities are left vulnerable to the violent actions of immigration enforcement. From shootings to car crashes, our loved ones are being targeted and killed.
The administration’s mass delegalization is worsening the healthcare crisis. When TPS is dismantled and programs like DACA are being chipped away piece by piece, it’s the home care workers, nurses, & doctors our communities rely on who are being pushed out of status.
Ruben Ray Martinez. Renée Nicole Macklin Good. Alex Pretti. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero. They were sons, daughters, parents, and neighbors. They showed up for their communities and went to work every day to take care of the people they loved.
Last weekend in Houston, UWD members paired up with @wethelucha to train over 30 of our neighbors, friends and community members on how to organize locally. Our members stepped into their power, led the space, trained their community, and became the next generation of organizing leaders.
Today is Citizenship Day; a perfect day to remind everyone that we are just ONE signature away from forcing a vote on the Dream and Promise Act in the House. The Dream & Promise Act would ensure citizenship for over 4.4 million immigrant young people, DACA recipients, TPS holders & those with DED.
Across the country and throughout history, students have led the way and shown the power of the people. As many of us head back to school, we stand in solidarity with students on campuses across the country organizing to protect our communities.

The federal government is closing the door on legal migration for millions of people. This is a mass delegalization effort to push millions of people out of status and make them deportable.
