Trump’s First Days: What Happened and How to Fight Back

The Trump administration has made their intentions clear — refugees, asylum seekers, and immigrants will be the target of a slate of dangerous policy announcements.

But we know the playbook of our response. During the first Trump administration, when the refugee resettlement program was threatened, we took legal action, we took to the streets, we advocated in Congress, we mobilized a Jewish and interfaith voice.

Ten days into President Trump’s second term, join us for an expert analysis of the administration’s first actions, their impact on refugees and immigrants, and how you can help fight back.

Moderated by Merrill Zack, Chief Global Community Engagement Officer & Executive Director, HIAS NY, the discussion will feature:

• Mark Hetfield, President, HIAS
• Naomi Steinberg, Vice President, U.S. Policy & Advocacy, HIAS
• Smita Dazzo, Vice President, Legal & Asylum, HIAS
