We loved seeing so many people from our communities at our anniversary party last night!

We wish you a happy Ganesh Chaturthi! Today, Hindus celebrate Ganesha, the god of new beginnings and the remover of obstacles. We’re wishing for obstacles to be removed on our path to building a better world, and celebrating the people who work to achieve this brighter future.

ICE didn't even tell her family that they were deporting her. They just took her away from her kids - she didn't even get to say goodbye to them. Her kids only found out because she was able to call them right before being put on the plane.

💔 Heartbreaking news out of Lancaster today. After 25 years of calling Pennsylvania home, Ester Soliman was deported to the Philippines. #KeepFamiliesTogether #ImmigrantJustice #EndDeportations www.witf.org/2025/08/15/e...

No one should be put in a life-or-death situation because of their citizenship status. But that’s exactly what’s happening in ICE custody. Chaofeng Ge had been in custody for just five days at the Moshannon Valley Processing Center. He was awaiting an immigration hearing when he died.

Join us for food, community, and updates on API PA’s work in Philadelphia on Thursday, August 14! As we navigate new challenges and attacks against our communities, let’s come together to build power and protect each other. Join us: secure.everyaction.com/npIH-E4iR0aH...

Anou is a business owner and a pillar of our community in Germantown. He is facing deportation to Laos, a country he left as a refugee when he was a small child. We're coming together on Saturday to demand ICE release Anou and bring him home to his family. secure.everyaction.com/x_EAnd5NDkOh...

Frustrated but not surprised: Donald Trump pulled funding for the Chinatown Stitch Project. This vital project was meant to reconnect a neighborhood and make our communities safer.

AFSCME 33 has reached a deal that better honors their essential work! Let’s celebrate the union that fought for fair wages, dignity, and respect! We were proud to stand with them because their fight for a city that works for everyone is our fight too.

It's Independence Day-- but the fight for our freedoms continues on. This Fourth of July, more than ever, we are working to defend our communities against predatory billionaires, to keep families safe and together, and fight for for our access to healthcare and basic necessities.

Republicans in Congress just sold us all out. They just cut Medicaid and SNAP - taking away health care and food from our families. They did this so that they can fund Trump’s cruel immigration plan that rips apart our families and communities. www.reuters.com/world/us/how...

Cuts to Medicaid would hurt thousands of families right here in Pennsylvania - let’s take a closer look at who would get hurt just in the first district represented by Brian Fitzpatrick. Over 104,000 people in PA-01 rely on Medicaid for their health care.

Senate Republicans just passed a bill that would defund Medicaid - a direct attack on millions of families who rely on it for healthcare, including reproductive care. They're playing politics with our health and our lives. Call your reps to stop this bad bill! secure.everyaction.com/XdYepmQeUU23...

Big news: Sixers’ owner and Comcast move to buy Market East building. We’re hopeful that the billionaires behind this project have learned from the last few years and that this time, they’re ready to do things differently. www.phillytrib.com/news/busines...

Philadelphia workers are on strike and we stand with them! AFSCME District Council 33 represents thousands of city employees who are demanding fair wages, dignity on the job, and a contract that reflects the essential work they do everyday to keep Philly running.

5 years of building power together! 🎉 From rallies to community meetings, phone banks to potlucks - you’ve spent the last 5 years organizing and showing up for each other all across PA! We’re so proud of everything our Asian American communities have built. And we’re just getting started. 💛

The Supreme Court is going to let President Trump and the MAGA movement try to change the rules of citizenship and who is or who is not an American. apnews.com/live/supreme...

This means people who have already been ripped from their families will be deported to countries that they have no connection to. They don’t see us as Nepali, Chinese, or Indonesian, they see us as a disposable “other”. No one is disposable. Call your reps: secure.everyaction.com/89g1PxoNw066...

📣 GOOD NEWS: A judge has ordered the release of Mahmoud Khalil from ICE custody! Movements came together, protested, and won this round - but the fight isn’t over.

Some of our most vulnerable community members are being targeted for deportation - like Nepali-speaking Bhutanese refugees who rebuilt their lives after fleeing an ethnic cleansing. These are our neighbors, our elders, our community members. They deserve safety, not fear.

If you're planning to hit the streets and protest President Trump's abuse of power and abhorrent deportation campaign, make sure you know your rights!

Montgomery County, PA is home to so many of our community members, and we are relieved to see that the county will no longer be voluntarily working with ICE to separate immigrant families! This helps make Pennsylvania a safe and welcoming home for all of our communities.

Philadelphia’s new city budget fails our communities. This new budget hurts small businesses while failing to invest in what Philadelphians actually need - dignity for our immigrant communities, investments in our public health, and fully funded public spaces.

Here's what to do if ICE comes to your workplace: 1. Stay Calm. 2. Remain silent. You have the constitutional right to remain silent and to refuse to answer questions. 3. Go to a private area. No one can enter a private area of your business without permission or a judicial warrant.

For too long, Pennsylvania has failed to protect our communities from the health impacts of industrial pollution. A new bill, HB 109, could finally change that. But it’s facing pushback and we need our elected leaders to stand with people, not polluters. www.inquirer.com/politics/pen...

🚨 Bad news: The U.S. Department of Justice is trying to walk away from an agreement it reached with a PA bank it accused of redlining in Philadelphia. We stand with @powerinterfaith.bsky.social in their lawsuit to hold the DOJ accountable. Read more: www.inquirer.com/real-estate/...

MontCo has said repeatedly that they want to be a welcoming county for immigrants. Holding people for hours after they post bail so they can be picked up by ICE decimates trust in local government and enables ICE's anti-immigrant family separation tactics. www.inquirer.com/news/pennsyl...

Pittsburgh, now is the time come out and demand the end to ice raids now.

Most of us would do anything to protect the people we love, and that's true if we were born here or have made America our home. We are coming together to keep our families and communities whole. Share this information to help everyone know how to protect themselves and their loved ones!

This would stop millions of Pennsylvanians from accessing healthcare while adding $2.4 Trillion to the deficit all so that a few billionaires can get out of paying their fair share in taxes. Call Senator McCormick and tell him to vote no because our communities need #CareNotCuts 202-224-6324

No matter who we are or where we come from, our greatest victories have always come from standing together as one. If you'll be at a rally in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, or anywhere in-between we'd love to hear about how you fought for a better future today! #MayDayPA
