Join the webinar on July 10th and 13th to help immigrants and learn about sanctuary.
Please CALL IN &/OR LOG IN VIA COMPUTER on Monday July 10th at 4 PM ET/1 PM PT for the IIC Webinar on 5 Ways to Defund the Deportation Machine.
It’s time for a congressional intervention. President Trump has requested billions of dollars for indiscriminate deportations of community members and an unprecedented number of immigrants in detention. Unless they hear a resounding NO from their constituents, members of Congress are poised to develop a budget that expands immigration enforcement and slashes programs that protect the most vulnerable.
We have an opportunity to let the prophetic voice ring out and empower our legislators to resist a budget designed to escalate the attack on our neighbors who are immigrants and refugees. Join the Interfaith Immigration Coalition for a webinar on Five Ways We Can Defund the Deportation Machine together. We will walk you through tangible actions you can take each week from July through August so that Congress hears from communities of faith loudly and boldly throughout the summer.
