- For many across the United States, including those of us passionate about defending the rights of immigrants and their families, this has been an immensely difficult week. The dust is just beginning to settle on an exhausting and divisive election season, one fueled by hate speech and savage political threats directed at immigrants and refugees, women, the black community, Muslims, people with disabilities and other marginalized groups.
- SAN FRANCISCO, CA — This past election day, Californians cast their votes in favor of a proposition that will have surprisingly positive benefits for immigrants and their families – the legalization of marijuana. With 55.8% of voters in favor of Proposition 64, also known as the Adult Use of Marijuana Act, California joined Massachusetts and Nevada, bringing the number of states and the District of Columbia who’ve rejected marijuana prohibition to eight. Results are still pending in a very tight vote in Maine, which currently leans in favor of legalization by one percentage point.
