Immigration Reform


Immigration is an American experience. Yet because of our broken immigration system, every day thousands of people are denied basic civil and human rights, are separated from their families, and are exploited in the workplace.

Washington CAN! believes that a just immigration system should provide a path to citizenship, protect all workers, reunite families and ensure equal access to justice. Immigration reform is a core racial and economic justice issue and Washington CAN! will fight for these principles at the local, state, and national levels.
