Washington, DC — The following is a statement from Vanessa Cárdenas, Executive Director of America’s Voice, reflecting on 100 Days of the Trump administration, followed by a roundup of relevant America’s Voice content on the first 100 Days and beyond.
According to Vanessa Cárdenas, Executive Director of America’s Voice:
“Cruel, costly, and chaotic best describe the first 100 days of the Trump administration. From abducting American children to undermining the rule of law to tanking our economy, the lengths this Administration will go to demonize immigrants have no limits. Yet, the more Americans see and experience the mass deportation agenda, the less they like it– as evidenced by recent polls that show that a growing majority of Americans disapprove of Trump on immigration and beyond.
Further, Trump’s minions seem intent on squandering one of America’s greatest comparative advantages as a nation by making it harder for people from around the world to imagine themselves studying, succeeding and creating businesses here in America. Our long-term fight is not just to fix a broken immigration system in a manner that reflects our interests and values, but to preserve a vision of America as the beacon of safety, liberty and freedom it has represented for so many, for so long.”
