P4C Monthly Meeting: Immigrant and Refugee Rights

Our guest speaker will be Fred Tsao, senior policy counsel for the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR). Fred will give us an overview of the recently passed Illinois Way Forward Act, which made Illinois the second state in the nation to require all local officials to end partnerships with ICE by the end of this year. He will also discuss the US budget resolution passed by the US senate. This bill includes a pathway for citizenship for DACA and Temporary Protected Status recipients, essential workers, and farm workers. Much work remains to be done as the bill must also pass in the house. Finally, Fred will say a few words on recent actions on immigration.
