Last Tuesday we shared our newsletter (buff.ly/QCv6iQC ) which focused on Spain’s decision to grant half a million undocumented people the right to live and work in the country.

Spain's immigration decree is a sign of hope - Distribute Aid
Spain just regularized the immigration status of 500,000 undocumented people, effective in spring 2026, in a victory for advocates of human immigration policy.

Spain just gave 500k undocumented people the right to live and work in the country. That’s what real progress looks like—and it should be a wakeup call for the rest of the West.

All of this, and also: it's ok if you have to try out a few different mutual aid groups to find one that's a good fit for you/one that has ways you can plug in sustainably.
It's not always easy but it is worth trying!

You’ve probably gotten enough reminders to stay hydrated and minimize screen time. What if the way to feel different was to… do something different?
There’s a mutual aid group near you. Find it, join it. It will be good.

Since folks are talking movement logistics, let me say this proudly:
@distributeaid.org is led by women. Most of our coordinator roles are staffed by women. And we pay a volunteer stipend to everyone in those roles.
Want better movement logistics? Pay women for the work they already do.

We're just getting started and would absolutely accept more donations!
That was just our minimum to make sure we had capacity. Shipping is expensive but when you fill a container with $100k of free aid it creates a 20x impact. ;)
