ILAP Sign-On Letter Urging COVID-19 Relief for Maine Immigrants

Over forty Maine organizations have signed a letter calling for Maine's Congressional delegation to push for the inclusion of immigrant families in the next COVID-19 relief package.

Thousands of Maine families, including farmworkers and other essential workers, have been left out of the cash payments. Many more families cannot access healthcare. Further, anti-immigrant policies like public charge and increased Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs & Border Protection (CBP) enforcement have Maine immigrants scared to access the care they need. ILAP’s sign-on letter outlines the urgent policies necessary to provide relief to ALL Mainers.
