John, Last week, Congress passed a budget bill that marks a sea change in U.S. immigration policy. 

While immigrant rights advocates successfully fought to keep some of the worst proposals out of the bill, major harms remain. The bill supercharges detention and enforcement funding, increases border militarization, raises immigration application fees, and weakens protections for vulnerable populations like children seeking safety. 

Join me and other experts from the National Immigrant Justice Center’s (NIJC) team for a virtual briefing this Wednesday to get a clear breakdown of what is in the bill, what the policy changes mean for immigrants in our communities, and what you can do to support immigrant rights.
