Immigration Injustice

U.S. immigration law criminalizes immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers through a series of unjust laws and increasingly harsh penalties imposed not only on those entering the United States in the hopes of a better life, but on those members of the community without citizenship who have also endured mistreatment and racial profiling in the criminal legal system. In addition, immigrant workers are often abused, exploited, and have become scapegoats and victims of racism and stereotyping.
