Yesterday's Supreme Court decision endangers our communities and subjects people to immigration stops simply because of the color of their skin, occupation, or the language they speak. This fight isn't over. Our right to live free from racial profiling is fundamental.

Black graphic with a quote in white text: "We should not have to live in a country where the government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent." In red text, the quote is attributed to Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Dissenting in Noem v. Perdomo

We can't keep paying the human and economic costs of the Trump administration's mass deportation crusade. A broad path to citizenship would create hundreds of thousands of new jobs, generate an estimated $1.7 trillion in GDP growth, and raise wages for everyone. It's the right move for all of us.
