Email Congress : Support asylum seekers and families at the border

Both the president and the Congress have key roles in managing how our nation’s border is managed. We ought to respect our laws designed to ensure secure borders but also our laws that offer asylum to those who have fled a credible fear of persecution. Ask your Representative and Senators know that you are concerned about many asylum seekers being denied due process as well as about those allowed to seek asylum, who face a backlogged process and the challenge of sustaining themselves in the meantime.
