The Shriver Center on Poverty Law works to ensure that immigrant families and communities are protected from discrimination and receive the support they need to thrive.
A statement from the Shriver Center on Poverty Law.
The Immigrant Tenant Protection Act would prohibit landlords from requiring a tenant to share their immigration status.
We will continue to fight for immigrant families in Illinois and across the country.
While the fight is not over, we celebrate that now the public charge rule should not be implemented in the state of Illinois & the rest of the nation.
District court Judge in New York issued a new temporary injunction blocking implementation and enforcement of the DHS Public Charge rule nationwide.
Now more than ever, no one should be deterred from seeking health care, food, or housing assistance, out of fear they will become a public charge.
More than ever, we need to advocate for systemic change.
