NAKASEC

Our hearts go out Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and his loved ones. 💔🕊️ Lorenzo should be here today with his wife, sons, and community, but ICE stole his life. This isn’t a unique event; it’s a pattern of terror and violence by a government agency that takes our dollars and our lives with no accountability.

Our parents, siblings, children, friends, and neighbors deserve to grow old and live full lives. We deserve to tuck our children in at night, pursue our dreams, and build our lives. Let’s be clear: true justice would be Lorenzo alive and safe with his family. But 🧊 made sure that could never happen. At the very least, there must be a full, independent investigation into his m*rder and accountability for his k!lIer.

NAKASEC TX and NAKASEC remain committed to building a true democracy in America, where every person’s humanity is respected and their rights upheld.

TPS began in 1990 and was created for individuals whose home countries are too unsafe for them to return to — whether because of war, natural disaster, or acute crisis.

Today, the Supreme Court gave the administration a green light to end the program — and said they didn’t have the power to check the executive. (Um, what?)

This ruling is devastating for our entire country. From the individual TPS holders to their spouses and children, to their friends, neighbors, and communities — we are all harmed by today’s decision.

We must be clear that this is part of a larger, coordinated effort to redesign the United States as a country only for a select few. The U.S. has never had a problem stealing our labor, our taxes, our wisdom and expertise, or our bodies — but they continue to play politics with us.

We are not temporary.
Our lives are not temporary.
It’s time to pass a pathway to citizenship for all NOW.
