Take Action for Human Rights

STAND AGAINST HATE

The Trump administration continues its hateful attacks on immigrants! URGENT: President Trump took executive action to expand the Muslim ban to include six additional countries: Nigeria, Eritrea, Myanmar, Kyrgyzstan, Sudan, and Tanzania.

The Trump administration has once again made it clear that it intends to turn its back on people in need of safety and a new home — and is willing to implement policies that needlessly target nationals of entire countries.

It is past time for our elected officials to rescind all versions of the Muslim ban — and other dangerous and discriminatory policies blocking children, families, and individuals from coming to the U.S. We need urgent action to undo these xenophobic policies that masquerade as security measures!

These policies are not only cruel and senseless, they have manufactured a crisis of the administration’s own making. Instead of making our country safe, these policies have endangered thousands of lives, torn families apart, and abandoned values long cherished by so many in the U.S.

While these unlawful restrictions are battled in the courts, Congress must step up to prevent the administration from carrying out these inhumane policies. Your Senators and Members of Congress urgently need to hear from you — their constituents — that they must pass the NO BAN Act.

URGENT: Tell your Senators and Members of Congress that you do NOT support banning people simply because of who they are or where they come from.

Dear Senator/Representative {contact_data~lastName},

I write to urge Congress to take up and pass the National Origin-Based Antidiscrimination for Nonimmigrants Act OR the NO BAN Act (S. 1123 / H.R. 2214) immediately.  I am deeply concerned about the administration’s actions to expand the travel ban affecting Muslim-majority countries, which reinforces a discriminatory agenda and furthers division in this country. This travel ban is coupled with the administration’s attempts to limit the rights of asylum-seekers and damaging policies towards refugees who need urgent access to safety. Passage of this act will send a clear message that the administration’s discriminatory policies must end.

The NO BAN Act (H.R. 2214/S. 1123) would:

- Undo the animus-driven “Muslim ban” and limit any President’s ability to discriminate on the basis of religion in the future;

- Rescind the administration’s attempt to unlawfully limit the right of asylum at the U.S. border; and,

- Remove needless obstacles for refugees urgently in need of resettlement to a third country, who are already subject to more vetting than any other group entering the U.S.

This bill is a much-needed step to ensure that no one can be banned based on their religion or nationality ever again. I urge Senator/Representative {contact_data~lastName} to become a cosponsor of the NO BAN Act if they are not already, call on Congressional leadership to take up and pass this much needed legislation, and support policies of welcome and support for refugees, asylum-seekers, and migrants alike.

Respectfully,
