RefuseFascism.org Protest @ the US SUPREME COURT
HANDS OFF Birthright Citizenship
In the Name of Humanity,
We Refuse to Accept a Fascist America
What: Rally – Protest & Speak-Out – Photo Op
When: Thursday May 15 9:00 am
Where: U.S. Supreme Court 1 East 1st Street NE Washington DC
As the Supreme Court hears Trump v. CASA, Inc., Trump v. Washington, and Trump v. New Jersey—arising from Trump’s outrageous executive order overturning 14th Amendment-granted birthright citizenship—RefuseFascism.org calls on all who care about basic rights and humanity to rally outside the Court and say: This is illegitimate! Hands off birthright citizenship! The Trump Fascist Regime Must Go Now
Andy Zee, spokesperson for RefuseFascism.org said:
“Trump is not, and must not become, the law. We reject the outrage of his illegitimate attempt to overturn Birthright Citizenship. The 14th Amendment to the Constitution is clear: every person born in this country is a US citizen. This was one fruit of the Civil War in the 1860’s and written into the US Constitution and has been upheld ever since.
“The shredding of the rule of law is a central feature of fascist rule. Attempting to eliminate birthright citizenship for a specific category of people is but one of many dangerous attempts to hammer a brutal American fascism form of rule into place. Kidnapping, deporting and essentially disappearing immigrants without legal hearing into outsourced concentration camps in foreign lands while also threatening the same for US citizens who the MAGA fascists deem their enemies – this and far worse is the future under this regime. NO! In the Name of Humanity, We Refuse to Accept a Fascist America!” We stand with our immigrant and refugee brothers and sisters.”
“RefuseFascism.org will be at the Supreme Court to demand to throw out the Trump Appeals and to call on all the decent and diverse people of this country to rise up in non-violent resistance and demand: Trump Must Go NOW!”
Among other speakers and performers, Attorney and author Amee Vanderpool will bring important insight into the stakes of this hearing:
“The 14th Amendment states: ‘All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.’ By striking down Donald Trump’s attempt to limit birthright citizenship in the United States, the highest court in the land will reinforce the law as it was written and effectively declare that judges across this country have the right to block presidential mandates. This case is about more than birthright citizenship; it is ultimately about reinforcing our long-established system of checks and balances that are the only hope of curtailing the destructive and illegal power of the Trump administration.”
Hands Off Birthright Citizenship! TRUMP MUST GO NOW!
