Congress must re-establish asylum protections and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for the 1.3 million people that the Supreme Court’s latest rulings now endanger. The rulings empower the Trump administration to send protected people from 17 countries including Haiti and Syria back into danger - a clear violation of international law. Instead of doubling down on racist and anti-immigrant practices and policies, the United States should be restoring access to asylum at the border and creating an immigration system that is fair and rooted in human rights. #HumanityMustWin

On Juneteenth, Amnesty International USA renews its calls for members of Congress to co-sponsor HR-40 and S-40. These bills would create a commission to investigate the legacy of chattel slavery and its ongoing harms, and develop reparations proposals for Black Americans in the U.S. The legacies of chattel enslavement can be identified in every facet of US society ranging from THE criminal justice system to healthcare to education, including the active erasure of Black Americans’ historical contributions from schools’ education curriculum. Reparations is a human right, and it is long overdue. Take Action: https://bit.ly/4fTAESb

By approving billions in new funding for ICE and CBP despite ongoing reports of human rights violations and other abuses, lawmakers have shamefully rewarded agencies that have carried out militarized raids, unlawful arrests and detention, racial profiling, and other actions that have terrorized communities across the country. The approval of nearly $70 billion for ICE and CBP doubles down on fear, violence and tearing families apart and gives a nod to the Trump administration that it is free to continue this disastrous and cruel system without facing accountability. More than 60,000 Amnesty International members and supporters urged Congress to reject this funding. We will continue fighting to end mass detention, abusive enforcement practices, and policies that separate families and undermine human rights.
