We are a united, interfaith, and grassroots coalition whose purpose is to advance progressive immigrant and refugee rights in Minnesota. We believe in treating all members of our community with dignity, respect, and compassion. We believe that families are stronger together and diversity makes our communities healthier. We believe that all policies and practices that work with immigrants and refugees should represent these values. We believe that criminalization of immigrants drives them into the shadows where they can be victimized or exploited, thus making our communities less safe.
We believe Minnesota is a better place because of the immigrant neighbors who live among us, whether newly-arrived, green card holders, DACA recipients, or noncitizens. All have dignity and human rights. We are working to make Minnesota a Sanctuary State.
