Advocate for a Pathway to Citizenship

Immigrant essential workers have been helping our communities endure this pandemic for over a year now, yet they have often been treated as expendable. In many ways, the U.S. benefits from their labor while disregarding their humanity.

Now is the time to fight for a pathway to citizenship for essential workers and their families, farmworkers, and our neighbors with DACA and TPS!

Join Interfaith Immigration Coalition in urging the Biden administration and Congressional leaders to include a pathway to citizenship in any and all upcoming recovery packages. Inclusive relief, which recognizes the dignity of all, should be prioritized—and proposals should not exclude anyone based on prior interactions with our nation’s racist criminal legal system.

Here's what you can do:

1. Sign on to this IIC letter - Faith leaders, people of faith, and faith organizations and denominations are invited to sign on to this letter to the Biden administration and Congressional leaders. The deadline to sign is Friday, April 23!
