The Latin America Working Group promotes U.S. policies that advance human rights, peace, and social, environmental, and economic justice in Latin America.
🚨 The GOP’s proposed $150 billion immigration package is an inexcusable waste of federal resources.

Asylum is a human right— it should NEVER have a price tag attached.

❌ Call your reps and demand they vote against this blatant attack on human rights.

Justice for Sara Millerey demands more than arresting those responsible for her murder. We demand that Colombian officials strengthen protections for LGBTQ+ individuals, and combat anti-trans rhetoric, which allows for these unspeakable acts of violence.

In honor of #transdayofvisibility, LAWG highlights Archivo Memoria Trans México, a beautiful, budding reminder that trans people have always existed, and will always exist – despite ongoing state violence against the trans community in the U.S. and Mexico.

3 años bajo el #RégimenDeExcepción en El Salvador.

#MOVIR exige justicia para los 85,000+ detenidos arbitrariamente y los 300+ fallecidos.

Mientras tanto, el régimen de Bukele difunde propaganda y se beneficia de la detención masiva.

LAWG se une al llamado: #LibertadParaLosInocentes

3 years under the #StateofException in El Salvador.

#MOVIR, Movimiento de Víctimas del Régimen, calls for justice for 85,000+ arbitrarily detained & 300+ deceased.

Meanwhile, the Bukele regime spreads propaganda and profits off mass detention.

LAWG echoes the call: #LibertadParaLosInocentes
