The Civil Rights Act was signed more than 60 years ago. That was a milestone not the finish line. Rights don’t protect themselves. We do. Remember the history. Defend the progress. Keep moving forward.

Today’s #SCOTUS decision reaffirming birthright citizenship is a victory for the Constitution and the rule of law. For more than 150 years, the 14th Amendment has made clear that nearly every child born on American soil is an American citizen. Our Constitution endures because no one is above it.

Months after Congress touted funding cuts, the Senate passed a $70 billion funding bill for ICE and CBP. Now, lawmakers are pursuing another $30 billion for ICE. In response, NIJC joined more than 100 organizations to urge Congress to reset its priorities. Read NIJC's statement w/ our partners 👇:

Thank you, Denver, for hosting us — what a beautiful city! Grateful for @localprogress.bsky.social & partners for building space to strategize, reflect, and act. This is not a drill. To immigrant leaders & allies: the road is long, but democracy is worth it. #DefendDemocracy #ProgressivePower

We are all shaped by the times we live in, but it is up to us to shape the future we want to see. As we face the urgent challenges of our era—climate change, inequality, injustice, and political division—let us seek out the ideas that promote unity, equity, and progress.
