Jewish Community Action for Refugees (NYC)

February 12, 2017 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm EST

President Trump’s recent actions against refugees are an outrage and a betrayal of American and Jewish values.

Join HIAS, the refugee agency of the Jewish community, to demand that America’s doors are reopened to refugees fleeing violence and persecution. In the 1930’s, Jewish refugees were turned away from these shores in their greatest hour of need. Our community must stand up for refugees, and not allow history to repeat itself.

Join us for a powerful community action at Battery Park. Come raise up your voice to protect the Statue of Liberty and all that she stands for and recognize the many people who’s lives that are at risk if they are unable to find safety here in this country.

Sister actions will be held the same day around the country.

Details and co-sponsors will be posted in the coming days, but mark your calendar and share the event.
