Anti-immigrant, racist, and xenophobic rhetoric and policies are threatening our freedom to move, freedom to stay, and freedom to thrive in our chosen homes. Politicians on the far right are using hate and fear to pass laws that police immigrants and bar our communities from accessing jobs, education, and health care, and they’re recklessly promoting white supremacist ideologies that have led to anti-immigrant violence in places like El Paso and Buffalo. The stakes are too high for the Biden Administration to let immigrants be used as political scapegoats or pawns.

The climate emergency is here. Unprecedented heat waves, historic flooding, and devastating wildfires continue to economically and physically destroy people’s lives. We need a mass government mobilization to do everything possible to keep people safe and end this existential threat from claiming thousands of lives.

Guns are the leading cause of death for young people and children in America; we are an entire generation terrorized by gun violence because right wing extremists and the gun industry are more interested in profit than our lives. We need a leader who will vigorously defend our right to live, take a public health approach to violence that divests from carceral solutions and invests in community wellbeing, end unconditional and irresponsible weapons transfers to police departments and abroad, and work actively towards a world where no one has to fear death because of a gun.

In order to meet this dire moment, the Biden Administration must show bold leadership. We’re calling on the White House to act boldly, including but not limited to the following:
