ADVANCING SOCIAL JUSTICE WITH TECHNOLOGY, MEDIA, AND CULTURA.
Lasting, transformative change happens when everyday people take action and speak out. Presente.org is the digital organizing platform for Latinx communities — and those who stand with us — to amplify our voices and fight for our collective welfare and dignity.
HIGHLIGHTS
NEW TPS for Central American and Haitian nationals
The climate crisis coupled with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic requires swift action by elected leaders. We call on the Biden-Harris administration to issue a new Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation for El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, and Nicaragua.
Protect Immigrants in #First100Days
We’re encouraged by President Biden’s executive orders that will immediately end funding for the border wall and the Muslim travel bans. But there’s still more work to be done to dismantle the terrible policies that the former administration enacted over the past four years.

CATCH UP WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA
Under the Trump admin we worked with a target on our backs. All three of our directors were put on a gov watchlist. Trump may be gone but the @CBPSanDiego agent who helped lead that surveillance effort in 2019 is now head of US Border Patrol.

Border patrol complaining now they have to treat migrants with some dignity & respect.
The acting BP chief "objected to a new directive to stop using the term 'alien' when referring to migrants, saying it would hurt agents' morale."
Boo hoo😢
