Statement “The dangerous, deeply misguided two-year rule issued by the Biden administration yesterday would deny and punish vulnerable asylum-seekers who seek refuge in our country to escape violence and persecution at home. This near-total ban on seeking asylum at our southern border would effectively prevent countless moms and families from exercising their right to seek safety in the United States, forcing them into situations where their lives are at grave risk.

North Carolina Moms Say ‘No’ to H.B. 10, Want Politicians to Welcome, Not Attack, Immigrant Families

Statement “It’s heartless. Mean-spirited. Divisive. Harmful. House Bill 10, now being considered in the North Carolina House of Representatives, would cause grave harm to immigrant families and communities and to our state.

And it would undermine the wisdom and judgment of sheriffs throughout our state.

Statement “President Biden's State of the Union speech hit all the right notes. The moms of America know the state of our union can only be strong when the country’s moms and families are economically secure, we can all access and afford the health care we need — including abortion care, our tax policies require everyone to pay their fair share, and our immigration and public safety policies are sound. That is the vision President Biden offered the country tonight.
