#Undocumented

[reverseteehee]

PLEASE SHARE! (I have attached the English and Spanish versions but MANY more languages are available at the attached link)

One way to support the undocumented community is by sharing resources, reminding individuals of their rights, and standing in solidarity with them. Here's one effective way to offer support: provide Know Your Rights cards to empower our communities.

You can print these cards for free! I am sharing a resource from the IRC, which can be downloaded and is available in multiple languages.

Let's work together to empower our communities!

Una forma de apoyar a la comunidad indocumentada es compartiendo recursos, recordándoles sus derechos y mostrándoles solidaridad. Aquí hay una manera efectiva de ofrecer apoyo: proporcionar tarjetas de "Conozca Sus Derechos" para empoderar a nuestras comunidades.

¡Estas tarjetas se pueden imprimir gratis! Estoy compartiendo un recurso de IRC, que se puede descargar y está disponible en varios idiomas.

¡Trabajemos juntos para empoderar a nuestras comunidades!

Wise words from someone who is one of Trump's targets, but this one has been paying attention.

To my Afro-Latinos/Latinas who didn't vote for Trump or who didn't sit the last election out, pay attention and inform your undocumented family member & friends to stay educated about this American world around them.

Undocumented residents in the US commit crimes at a lower rate than both legal immigrants and citizens. It makes sense when you realize they know if they get caught they will likely be deported.

To a Young Poet

Zaina Alsous

I don’t usually write because I’m too busy being afraid of it. Not of writing but the it. It’s more like breaking open a fruit. Not to taste but to see what bleeds out. Here is a country. Here is a person in that country who has no papers but digs holes in the earth, plants trees, buries his shadow. The country hates him and hates me too, a little less, because I have papers. A document is a strange thing. To ask the placenta for its numerical origin. To tell the dirt it belongs to you. Poets should be concerned with how an empire makes us hate the people without papers. Who could be us, who are us, but temporarily less human because it is convenient for the jobs. The jobs are too important to stop the bombs that burn the flesh of the children who were my face as a child, but I live here, with papers. I call it my life. This language is a chain of accidents. What I’m trying to say is no one gives a fuck about your poems but write them anyway. If you’ve got a body, a pen, a shadow that follows you like a dog, then make it mean something. You are alive among flesh explained back to us as furniture. Hope is a tax. Each word—say it aloud—I am here—is a coin, a debt owed to love. Take the echo seriously. Our living is the plot to sing completion. Let it fill you, let it bruise. Greet the stranger: did you know we share a wick?

"California will begin paying for free legal help with immigration for undocumented farmworkers who are involved in state investigations of wage theft or other labor violations, Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office announced this week.

The $4.5 million pilot program will provide qualifying farmworkers with referrals for legal help with their immigration status. 

Roughly half of California’s farmworker population is believed to be undocumented. Fear of deportation and difficulties finding jobs can discourage workers from filing labor complaints or serving as witnesses in cases alleging unsafe work temperatures, wage theft, or employer retaliation for unionizing, officials said...

Respecting immigrant rights

Farmworkers in labor investigations who qualify for the new state program will receive a direct referral to legal services organizations that already offer immigration services, such as the Community Action Board of Santa Cruz County or the United Farm Workers Foundation, which spoke in support of the program. 

The free legal services workers could receive include case review, legal advice and representation by an attorney, according to Newsom’s office...

Deferred deportation

State officials said the pilot program aligns with a new Biden administration policy that makes it easier for undocumented workers who are victims of labor rights violations to request deferred action from deportation. Because the federal Department of Homeland Security can’t respond to all immigration violations, it exercises “prosecutorial discretion” to decide who to try to deport.

State officials said they won’t ask for workers’ immigration status, but noncitizens granted this deferred action may be eligible for work authorization.

This year, California labor department officials began supporting undocumented workers’ requests for prosecutorial discretion or deferred action from federal immigration officials, including when employers threaten workers with immigration enforcement to prevent workers from cooperating with state investigators. 

“The Department of Industrial Relations’ Labor Commissioner’s Office … was the first state agency to request deferred action from DHS for employees in an active investigation, and that request was successful,” Hickey said. “This is an important process for undocumented workers to be aware of.”"

ANOTHER UNDOCUMENTED MIGRANT MERCILESSLY SUBJECTED TO RACIST HATE SPEECH!!!

Nilson Granados-Trejo was rudely and cruelly branded an "Illegal Immigrant" by the press after killing a toddler and injuring his teenage mom. <link>

"He's UNDOCUMENTED," shouted an angry Joe Biden. "He's not illegal, he's not an alien or an immigrant, he's an undocumented migrant. And he built this country and everything in it. Show some respect for my voters, you VILE WHITE PERSON!"

"And so what if he murdered a toddler and wouldn't have if I had only enforced our immigration laws? Lots of people kill toddlers, and I don't care about them either. Why should I care now?"

Don't let Biden's words fool you through. He's just pandering to his base of crackpots, bed wetters & communists. Behind the scenes Biden is working hard to resolve the illegal alien crime wave.

"The problem is housing," a Biden spokesperson explained. "These noble migrants can't afford housing and only turn to crime out of desperation. So the President's new plan to house illegal aliens inside of college dormitories, at taxpayer expense, should alleviate the crime problem, allowing the administration to concentrate on the real threat to society: Trump voters.

“Guy could deport me and my family anyd my family at any time, but I love him anyway.” Seriously, though. This is a death cult.

How California can create 500,000 to 1 million jobs. Send them home.

How California can create 500,000 to 1 million jobs. Send them home. According to state data, roughly 1.6 million illegal immigrants are currently enrolled in Medi-Cal, part of the program’s total 15 million enrollees. The state had initially projected the expansion would cost just under $6 billion for fiscal year 2024–2025. But just one year in, the costs have surged far past that…
