This fall, the 2026 U.S. midterm elections will offer an opportunity to stand for our values and to insist on policies that protect refugees, immigrants, and others who are currently marginalized and endangered. We must elect candidates who understand that immigration is not a problem to be solved, it is a blessing and opportunity to be embraced, just as it was in previous generations.
Follow our resources on this page to learn more about refugee and immigration policy and ways you can take action to support our immigrant neighbors. Join HIAS in fighting back and standing for a world in which refugees find welcome, safety, and opportunity.
