For nearly 20 years, CDM has been on the frontlines ensuring workers build their power and are able to stand up for their rights. At this moment, when migrant workers are under attack, our commitment to this work is steadfast and more critical than ever. CDM was built to meet moments of vulnerability and we intend, as we always have, to rise to the occasion, and face the challenges of this moment with unwavering commitment to those we serve.
CDM is prepared and ready to continue defending the rights of migrant workers. Are you?
As the threat of mass worksite raids and unprecedented deportations continue to escalate, we expect expansion of flawed temporary work visa programs that facilitate the abuse of migrant workers. We are committed to defending the progress we’ve made over the years and to help migrant workers challenge injustice. We are ready to rapidly respond to worksite raids—using tested tools and leveraging our networks of worker leaders and community-based organizations. We have already trained migrant worker leaders through our Comité de Defensa del Migrante, 1,700 attorneys, and others to do this work. We will also continue to support workers through outreach, education, and strategic legal services.
In this precarious time, CDM’s work is more essential than ever. And so is your support.
Now is the time to stand with migrant workers and with CDM.
