We need you to contact your Representatives ASAP!
We are facing a humanitarian crisis, and we need you to call your member of the U.S. Congress at (202)-224-3121! Update: the House shamefully voted to slam the door on innocent victims of warfare and terrorism. Call NOW and express your disapproval of this action!
Innocent men, women, and children are fleeing war torn Syria, risking their lives on rafts crossing the ocean, and scrambling for safety. Many have already died trying. A multitude of humanitarian groups are working to assist, but we need you to assist now too.

Today, the U.S. House leadership scheduled a quick vote on HR 4038 which is designed to halt the refugee program. This could set the program back by years at a time when literally millions are in crisis. The refugees cannot wait and neither can we! Call your member now at (202) 224-3121 and tell them to vote no on HR 4038.
After last week’s attack in Paris, fear mongering is rampant, along with the drumbeat for war. We must remain strong. These refugees are not terrorists; they are being terrorized, and we must help them. We have a moral obligation to do so. Please call your member of Congress now at (202) 224-3121 and express your outrage about HR 4038.
