Advocates push the Biden administration to help Black migrants
February 24, 2022
A network of over 55 national faith-based organizations that advocate for migrants and refugees named The Interfaith Immigration Coalition, is calling on the Biden administration to combat “anti-Black racism in the U.S. immigration system.” The faith-based organizations want officials to listen to its concerns regarding putting an end to the detention and deportation of Haitians and other Black migrants. Not only have these migrants been mistreated by U.S. officials, but some were sent back to Haiti without being given an opportunity to apply for asylum. The coalition is calling for an end of Title 42 and the “Remain in Mexico” policy. The advocates want Temporary Protection Status to be put in place for migrants from “Black-majority nations in crisis.”
