conservatives want to genocide trans people & imprison sex workers in the next election - cis people are in danger as well. nobody is talking about this, so REBLOG IT.

REBLOG THIS. i do not care if this doesn't fit with your blog. conservatives, if the next president is republican, want to implement things that involve killing/jailing trans people, information control, actively stopping efforts to stop climate change, etc. if a twitter thread is more digestible, you can find one i made here. RETWEET IT.

https://twitter.com/nuniyoa/status/1698534141472727358

so fucking nobody (that i've seen) is talking about this and i've only seen 1 tumblr post about it with less than 6k notes. @asterosian was the one who brought this to my attention, and here's his post: https://ganbreedings.tumblr.com/post/727921195127865344

the document, which can be found below this paragraph, is ~1000 pages long and i know nobody on tumblr has the patience to read that. use ctrl+f on this pdf (link is to view it in browser) to look up specific topics. in this post, i will be briefly discussing some of the things said using textual evidence and citations. https://thf_media.s3.amazonaws.com/project2025/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf

just some of the things this document talks about are:

wanting to imprison trans people for existing, make discrimination of people legal in the workplace, punish education about the existence of trans people, make sex work illegal, make education about sex illegal, make contraception unaffordable, ban the week-after pill, imply fatherhood is a requirement, ban education on real american history, ignore other governments, seal the borders, enforce the death penalty (including for trans people for just existing), stop efforts to end climate change, fund the military, claim OAR science is theoretical and downsize it and NOAA, eliminate critical race theory in education, want to eliminate teaching of critical race theory based on a gross misunderstanding, eliminate diversity, the teaching of marxism's existence, "deleting" words regarding queer and reproductive topics, and so much more.

we trans people are called pornography:

"Pornography, manifested today in the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology sexualization of children..." (page 37)

and conservatives want to outlaw pornography and say those who distribute it should be imprisoned. if trans people are pornography, is not going about our day outside distributing porn?

"Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned" (page 37)

they also support the death penalty and say that "child sexual abusers" should be given that. i am not disagreeing that CSA is bad; it is. i'm talking about how they're going to classify trans people as that for exposing minors to "porn" for simply going out in public. by saying this, they are using roundabout language and logic to say trans people should be given the death penalty.

"It should also pursue the death penalty for applicable crimes...crimes involving...sexual abuse of children..." (page 554)

they don't want people to be taught about our existence. and they don't want sex taught at all; even safe sex.

"Educators and public librarians who purvey [porn] should be classed as registered sex offenders..." (page 37)

sex education needs to be taught, period. and if they're going to ban abortions and contraceptives, it especially needs to be taught.

"HHS should rescind...preventive services...preventive services include contraception..." (page 483)

"Eliminate the week-after-pill..." (page 485)

they want to ignore what other countries say.

"International organizations and agreements that erode our Constitution, rule of law, or popular sovereignty should not be reformed: They should be abandoned" (page 12)

they want the border SEALED and illegal immigration ended:

"Illegal immigration...ended...the border sealed..." (page 12)

and, of course, more xenophobic shit about china:

"Economic engagement with China ended..." (page 13)

"[Universities funded by the CCP should] lose their accreditation, charters, and eligibility for federal funds" (page 13).

they want to stop efforts to end climate change:

"Repeal climate change initiatives..." (page 508)

and downsize funds given to the government division (OAR) that forwards its information on climate change to the NOAA, and they want climate change research "disbanded":

"...[OAR climate change research is] theoretical..." (page 676)

"...disbanded..." (page 676)

they want critical race theory and gender ideology erased from schools because they "poison our children". they are erasing things from being taught; and critical race theory isn't about affirming one's characteristics. it's for showing that white people are on top and that it needs to change:

"...'critical race theory and 'gender ideology' should be excised from curricula in every public school in the country..." (page 5)

"These theories poison our children..." (page 5)

"...affirm the color of their skin fundamentally determines their identity and even their moral status..." (page 5)

and they straight up don't want america's history being taught. america is founded on racism, tears, oppression, etc. they don't want this taught because they don't want people knowing real american history. so they can't see history repeating itself:

"...racist, anti-American, ahistorical propaganda [in] America's classrooms" (page 8)

they want discrimination based on queer status and "sex characteristics" legal. this is said in regards to the military, but it won't stop there. and "sex characteristics" means YOU, cis people. you can be denied things just for having boobs or a beard. even if you're cis:

"Rescind regulations prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity, transgender status, and sex characteristics" (page 585)

"...abolish newly established diversity, equity, and inclusion offices and staff" (page 103)

and misinformation is present of course by saying gender-affirming care causes irreparable damage:

"...'gender transition' procedures or 'gender-affirming care,' which cause irreversible physical and mental harm to those who receive them"

and, quite abhorrently, and i quote, they want words related to queerness DELETED:

"This starts with deleting the terms sexual orientation and gender identity ('SOGI'), diversity, equity, and inclusion ('DEI'), gender, gender equality, gender equity, gender awareness, gender-sensitive, abortion, reproductive health, reproductive rights, and any other term used to deprive Americans of their First Amendment rights..." (pages 4-5).

there is... SO much more i could cover. but i need to cut it short somewhere. and remember: this affects everyone.

cis people, you can be discriminated against for "sex characteristics", which includes things like breasts or facial hair. transphobic queer people, you can and will be discriminated against for your sexuality. your children are at danger of being taught deliberate misinformation at school. america is sealing itself off in a fascist bubble; as much as it hates countries like china and north korea, it is doing the exact same thing. and climate change regulations want to be repealed and climate change science is called "theoretical". this isn't even just about america anymore; this is about the whole world.

vote in the 2024 election. vote democrat. don't let the "mandate of leadership: the conservative promise" by the heritage foundation make this shithole country even worse.

Fear

How wonderful it must be to be so comfortable in your life that you don't have to be scared for your health, others' health, or your own and others' well-being. It is a privilege, and some people, a large group, woke up today fearing for their personal well-being. Women, LGBT+, immigrants, and second-generation immigrants who have been here in America all their lives and are just living paycheck to paycheck, and our processes to become a citizen are too expensive or difficult for them to navigate.

Form I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status), used by those seeking a green card or permanent residency, also went up 18% for the standalone application in 2024 (from $1,225 to $1440)

Adjustment of Status: How an Atlanta Immigration Lawyer Can Help

Adjustment of Status (AOS) is a critical pathway for immigrants living in the United States who wish to become lawful permanent residents (green card holders) without returning to their home country for visa processing. For individuals in Atlanta, GA, the AOS process provides an opportunity to secure their immigration status while staying close to their family, work, and community. However, navigating this complex legal process often requires the expertise of a skilled immigration lawyer.

What Is Adjustment of Status?

Adjustment of Status is the process by which eligible individuals in the United States can apply to change their temporary immigration status to that of a permanent resident. This process is overseen by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and is typically available to individuals who:

Have a qualifying family relationship (e.g., being the spouse, parent, or child of a U.S. citizen)

Are employment-based green card applicants

Qualify through humanitarian programs, such as asylum or refugee status

Are beneficiaries of specific visa programs, like the Diversity Visa Lottery

Eligibility Requirements

To apply for AOS, you must meet certain eligibility criteria:

Lawful Entry: You must have entered the United States legally, meaning you were inspected and admitted or paroled by an immigration officer.

Visa Availability: A visa must be immediately available to you in the appropriate category (e.g., through family sponsorship or employment).

Continuous Presence: Certain categories, such as asylees or refugees, require proof of physical presence in the U.S. for a specific period.

Admissibility: You must not have disqualifying factors such as criminal convictions or immigration violations unless a waiver is available.

Common Challenges in Adjustment of Status

The AOS process can be complicated, with potential hurdles including:

Complex Documentation: Applications require extensive documentation, including Form I-485, proof of eligibility, medical exams, and financial sponsorship.

Legal Barriers: Issues like unauthorized work, visa overstays, or prior immigration violations can jeopardize eligibility.

Interview Preparation: USCIS interviews are a critical step in the process and require thorough preparation to address questions and concerns.

Processing Delays: The timeline for AOS applications varies and may be prolonged due to errors or incomplete submissions.

How an Atlanta Immigration Lawyer Can Help

An experienced immigration lawyer in Atlanta can provide invaluable assistance with your Adjustment of Status application. Here’s how they can help:

Eligibility Assessment: A lawyer will review your circumstances to determine if you qualify for AOS and identify potential challenges.

Application Preparation: They can ensure your application is complete, accurate, and supported by the required evidence.

Legal Guidance: Attorneys can address issues like inadmissibility and help you apply for waivers if necessary.

Interview Support: Your lawyer will prepare you for the USCIS interview, ensuring you understand the questions and can respond confidently.

Handling Appeals or Denials: If your application is denied, an attorney can help you appeal the decision or explore alternative pathways.

Choosing the Right Lawyer in Atlanta

When selecting an immigration lawyer to assist with your AOS application, look for:

Experience: Choose a lawyer with a strong track record in Adjustment of Status cases.

Knowledge: Ensure they are well-versed in both local USCIS procedures and federal immigration laws.

Communication: A reliable lawyer keeps you informed throughout the process and is responsive to your questions.

Client Reviews: Positive testimonials and recommendations from past clients can provide valuable insights.

Conclusion

Adjustment of Status is a significant opportunity for immigrants to achieve permanent residency while remaining in the United States.

Understanding the Cost and Process of the EB-5 Visa

What is the EB-5 Visa?

The eb 5 visa is an immigrant investor program that allows foreign nationals to obtain a green card through investment in U.S. businesses. By investing in a U.S. enterprise that creates or preserves jobs, investors can secure permanent residency for themselves and their immediate family members. This is a highly sought-after option for individuals seeking to live and work in the U.S.

EB-5 Visa Cost

One of the most common questions regarding the eb 5 visa cost. The required cost of eb5 visa is a minimum investment of $1,050,000. However, if you’re investing in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA), the amount can be reduced to $800,000. This investment must be in a new commercial enterprise that meets the job creation requirements of the program. In addition to the actual investment, there are other costs to consider, such as legal fees, filing fees, and the cost of processing your petition.

EB-5 Visa Process

The EB 5 visa process involves several steps to ensure that your investment meets the required criteria for U.S. immigration:

Choose an Investment Opportunity: Decide whether to invest directly in a new business or through a regional center.

Make the Required Investment: Invest the minimum amount of capital (either $800,000 or $1,050,000) in the chosen enterprise.

File Form I-526: This form is your petition to USCIS, demonstrating that your investment meets the necessary requirements.

Wait for Approval: The USCIS reviews your petition, and if it’s approved, you can apply for conditional permanent residency.

File for Adjustment of Status: Once approved, you and your family will be able to apply for a conditional green card.

File Form I-829: After two years, this petition is required to remove the conditions on your permanent residency.

EB-5 Processing Time

The eb-5 processing time varies depending on a range of factors, including the complexity of the case and the investor’s country of origin. On average, the EB-5 processing time can take anywhere from 24 to 36 months. However, this can change based on current immigration policies and processing times at USCIS.

EB-5 Visa Requirements

To qualify for the EB-5 visa, investors must meet certain EB-5 visa requirements:

Investment Amount: The required minimum investment is $1,050,000 or $800,000 depending on the location of the investment.

Job Creation: You must create or preserve at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers within two years of obtaining your conditional green card.

At-Risk Investment: Your investment must be at risk, meaning there is a possibility of losing your capital.

Lawful Source of Funds: You must demonstrate that the money used for the investment comes from lawful sources, such as business income, investments, or inheritance.

EB-5 Visa Timeline

The eb 5 visa timeline can vary, but here’s an average breakdown of the time it takes to complete the process:

Form I-526 Approval: 18 to 24 months

Adjustment of Status (Form I-485): 6 to 12 months

Form I-829 (Removal of Conditions): 24 to 36 months

On average, the entire EB-5 visa process can take anywhere from 3 to 5 years from initial investment to the final approval of permanent residency.

Role of EB-5 Visa Specialists

Navigating the EB-5 visa process can be complex, which is why many investors choose to work with eb 5 visa specialists. These professionals provide invaluable assistance by guiding you through the various stages of the application process, helping with project selection, preparing your paperwork, and ensuring all requirements are met. eb 5 visa specialists can significantly increase your chances of success and reduce the chances of delays or rejections in your application.

Conclusion

The EB-5 visa offers an excellent opportunity for investors seeking permanent residency in the United States. Understanding the EB-5 visa cost, the eb 5 process, and the EB-5 visa requirements is essential for a smooth and successful application. By partnering with experienced EB-5 visa specialists, you can ensure that your application meets all necessary criteria and that you complete the process efficiently. Whether you are looking to invest $800,000 or $1,050,000, the EB-5 visa can be the gateway to a new life in the U.S.

If you’re ready to start your journey toward U.S. residency, consult with an EB-5 visa specialist today to help navigate the complex EB-5 process and take the first step toward a brighter future.

How a New York Immigration Lawyer Can Help with Family Petitions and Adjustment of Status

Families seeking to reunite with loved ones in the United States often face a complex and daunting immigration process. As you navigate the intricate world of family-based immigration, it's necessary to understand the various steps involved and how a knowledgeable New York immigration lawyer can guide you through the process.

At Alena Shautsova Law Offices, our experienced attorneys specialize in family-based immigration, providing expert guidance and support throughout the journey. Family petitions and adjustment of status are two critical components of this process, and our team is dedicated to helping you achieve your goals.

Family petitions allow U.S. citizens or permanent residents to sponsor their eligible family members for a green card. This process involves submitting a petition to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to establish your relationship with your family member. You can file petitions for spouses, children, parents, and other eligible relatives. However, it's necessary to ensure accurate filings and supporting documents, as errors or omissions can lead to delays or even denials.

An experienced New York immigration lawyer can help you anticipate and address these challenges, increasing the likelihood of a successful outcome.

Once your family member's petition is approved, they may be eligible to adjust their status to become a permanent resident. Adjustment of status is the process of obtaining a green card without leaving the United States. To be eligible, your family member must meet specific criteria, including having a valid immigrant visa available, being admissible to the United States, and meeting the required eligibility requirements.

The adjustment of status process involves submitting Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, along with supporting documentation and fees. While this process may seem straightforward, potential challenges can arise, such as addressing prior immigration issues, overcoming medical or criminal inadmissibility, or dealing with delays or requests for evidence.

That's where Alena Shautsova Law Offices can help. Our experienced attorneys will provide legal guidance throughout each step of the process, ensuring accurate and timely documentation, and advocating on your behalf during immigration interviews or hearings.

NRI's Birth Certificate from Nagpur

A Birth Certificate contains a person's date and place of birth. A person born in a country is entitled to citizenship and documentation. The first Birth Certificate include a person's age and birthplace. If the birth was recorded by the municipality, a Birth Certificate will be issued.

When a person is born, his or her name is rarely mentioned. The possibility of discrepancy exists despite mentioning a name, the name of the parent, or the date of birth. Due to this complexity, it is necessary to search municipal records for the names and birth years of the applicants' parents. Green cards are issued by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS). During the registration process, names that were not mentioned during the registration process may be added. A copy of the Birth Certificate must be provided when applying for permanent residence. Other countries, including Australia, New Zealand, the Netherlands, and Canada, also file I 485s. In order to complete these procedures, you will need original Birth Certificate or a certificate of non-availability of birth certificates (NABC). Additionally, it is crucial during visa procedures, such as Adjustment of Status, which alter a visa holder's status. NRIWAY provides assistance in the process of obtaining Birth Certificate rather than having to visit a local municipal corporation.
