This act can help restore compassion to our treatment of refugees!
Welcoming refugees is not just something we do in America. It's who we are. That's why I just introduced the Refugee Protection Act of 2019, a comprehensive blueprint for restoring our reputation as the humanitarian leader of the world. READ about it HERE: leahy.senate.gov/press/leahy…

Absolutely this. Stephen Miller is a major impediment to anything positive happening on immigration. Praying the President has the wisdom to remove him and that those who have influence will use it to this effect.
Thank you @TylerHuckabee!
As long as he has a hand in shaping, U.S. immigration policy, American Christians will be unable to live up to the full potential of the call to love immigrants. relevantmagazine.com/current…

U.S. law gives the right to any person seeking asylum in the U.S. to access a designated port of entry. We're committed to protecting the rights of immigrants lawfully seeking refuge in the U.S., partnering w/ organizations to offer legal services to families seeking asylum.

In America, 13 human beings were killed by white supremacist terrorists this week. 2, because they were Black. 11, because they were Jewish. THIRTEEN. One would have been too many. The soul of America is sick. “This is not who we are.” Well, it’s not who we should be.

There’s no bill by this name or with this effect
In reality, most Senate Dems joined some Republicans in February in voting for $25 billion for a border wall—but the White House threatened a veto because they said it didn’t cut legal immigration enough wtsp.com/mobile/article/news… – at Oak Brook, IL
Unacceptable. Wrong. Reprehensible. God have mercy on us for what we are doing... #WhereAreTheChildren nytimes.com/2018/10/08/us/mi…
