While every attempt at immigration reform is stymied by the anti-immigrant portion of the right, Grassroots Leadership has made sure that the people caught in the crossfire aren’t forgotten, organizing protests at detention centers, publishing research, and consistently refuting misinformation. Progress might be slow, but Grassroots and other immigration activists have managed to keep the conversation going, and positive changes, such as a judge’s recent order to release undocumented immigrants in three facilities, have had a real impact on people’s lives.
