Celebrating Our Wins, Organizing for Our Future: LGBTQ Immigrants in Times of Executive Action

On Thursday night, hundreds of thousands gathered across the country in living rooms, over laptops and in front of televisions waiting for and anticipating executive action on immigration from President Obama. Together we held our breath, we held hands and we hoped. We hoped that the President’s actions would match our organizing efforts and years of building collective power and taking risks to provide relief from detention and deportations for ourselves and for our communities.
