SEARAC Fasts to Keep Families Together and to Urge Congress to End Deportations

Washington, DC – Staff and board members of the Southeast Asia Resource Action Center (SEARAC) are fasting today in solidarity with “Fast for Families” in support of reform that allows for a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, family reunification, and an end to deportations that are devastating immigrant and refugee communities. “Every day that Congress waits to pass immigration reform, more families are torn apart by deportation,” said Phuong Do, SEARAC’s interim executive director. “Deportation traumatizes families and destabilizes communities, and we are fasting to call on Congress to take action.” Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reported that in FY 2012, it deported over 400,000 people.
