Immigrants are the backbone of our economy, workforce, and communities. Their contributions span industries, from agriculture and healthcare to construction and childcare. A day without immigrants isn’t just a statement—it’s a stark reminder of the vital role they play in sustaining and driving the U.S. economy. We support our community’s right to peacefully advocate for policies that impact their families. Now, more than ever, we must recognize our shared humanity and the economic and social realities that make immigration an integral part of our country’s success. #DiaSinInmigrantes
