Less than a week from today, Donald Trump will become the 45th President of the United States, and immigrant and refugee communities in New York are poised to face that reality with a profound strength and resilience. Donald Trump's candidacy and election have had a tangible impact on immigrant communities - in New York and across the country. But they are also emboldened by the spirit of our New York - a state that thrives when we all thrive. Today we launch the "This Is Our New York" campaign to engage all of our New Yorkers, regardless of immigration status, in a multi-faceted effort to showcase the true, inclusive values of our New York. Through comprehensive outreach, community education, legal services, advocacy, organizing, capacity building, and public engagement, we will protect, defend and stand up for immigrant New York - for our New York.
