Sept. 12, 2018
Letter to the Hon. Jeff Sessions III, Attorney General of the U.S. - 118 House Democrats to AG Sessions: Reverse Decision Ending Asylum for Victims of Domestic, Gang, and Gender-Based Violence
Rep. Jan Schakowsky, ...
Sept. 12, 2018
Tweet - "The Trump family separation policy is a humanitarian disaster of this Administration's own creation. Hundreds of children are still separated from their families. It's heartless and antithetical to our values as a kind and caring nation. And no one has been held accountable."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 11, 2018
Tweet - "The Attorney General is supposed to advance justice for everyone in our country -- including immigrants. Instead, Jeff Sessions disparages lawyers who represent immigrants & undermines the independence of immigration courts to suit his anti-immigrant agenda"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 7, 2018
Letter to the Hon. Kirstjen Nielsen and the Hon. Alex Azar - 64 Members of Congress Urge DHS and HHS Secretaries to Support Flores Settlement

Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 5, 2018
Tweet - "One year ago today, President Trump announced he was ending the #DACA program. With the stroke of a pen, he could fix it and give #Dreamers the future they deserve in the only country they call home. #SaveDACA"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 31, 2018
Tweet - "We are more than 5 weeks past the court ordered deadline to reunite families that were ripped apart at the border by the Trump Admin. Yet, 100's of kids remain separated including babies whose parents were deported without them. When will the cruelty end?"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 31, 2018

Sen. Ladda Duckworth, ...
Aug. 30, 2018
Tweet - "More evidence of the Trump Administration's extreme anti-immigrant agenda - they sanction Nicaraguan government that "brutalized their own people" while forcing Nicaraguans with clean records and deep roots in our country to return to face these abuses."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 29, 2018

Aug. 19, 2018
Tweet - "As the immigration chaos builds in the wake of zero-tolerance, the end of DACA, and countless anti-immigrant policies implemented by this White House, America's immigration system is crying out for reform."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 15, 2018
Tweet - "Fortunately, federal court injunctions have temporarily allowed people who previously had DACA to renew their status. The Trump Administration should fully restore DACA instead of refusing to defend it in court."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 15, 2018
Tweet - " I've shared over 100 Dreamer stories on the Senate floor. Despite the contributions #Dreamers are making in our communities, Pres Trump heartlessly ended the #DACA program last year. He broke his promise to them & uses Dreamers as a bargaining chip for an anti-immigrant agenda."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 15, 2018
Tweet - "Being stuck in legal limbo is no way to live. That's why it remains imperative -- as we mark the sixth anniversary of DACA -- to continue fighting to give Dreamers a pathway to citizenship and pass the #DreamAct."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 15, 2018
Tweet - "6 years ago, the government began accepting the first applications for the #DACA program, changing the lives of 800,000 young immigrants who could now receive temporary protection from deportation, study, and legally work in the only country they have ever known. #ProtectDreamers"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 15, 2018
Tweet - "It's up to Republicans who control Congress to have the courage to do what's right for these young immigrants by working with Democrats to finally pass the #DreamAct #ProtectDreamers"
Sen. Dick Durbin

Aug. 10, 2018
Tweet - "It's been a month and a half since a judge ordered the Trump Admin to reunite the families it separated. How are there still over 500 kids yet to see their parents? The zero-tolerance policy, and this incompetent attempt to reunite children, is a stain on our great nation."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 9, 2018
Tweet - "AG Sessions and DHS Sec. Nielsen are doing all they can to make it harder for immigrant victims of domestic violence and gang violence to gain safety. We have to hold this anti-immigrant White House accountable every step of the way."
