Tell Governor Hochul: Keep our Communities Together

Just days into his presidency, Trump is already making good on his plans to carry out mass deportation raids targeting immigrant families across the country, including right here in New York. This is cruel. It's wrong. Yet, Governor Hochul’s office announced intentions to cooperate with federal officials to detain and deport some immigrants, including those who are even suspected of unofficially crossing the border. The governor must step up to protect our communities – not cave and cower to the federal government’s attempts to mass criminalize immigrants and tear us apart.

The years to come under the Trump administration will be fraught, but we don’t have to – and cannot – brave them alone. The way to gather strength is to gather with others – reaffirming our shared values in community.

That’s why we’re starting a new program – New Yorkers for American Values – to build a support system throughout the state of like-minded individuals who value a functioning representative democracy.
