VICTORY! NY QUITS S-COMM!
Friends,
We wanted to send a personal note to say how crucial your support has been to our tremendous victory in stopping S-Comm, ICE's mass deportation program, in New York. Thanks to the more than 6,300 voices who signed the petition, and the scores of organizations, faith leaders, and legislators who spoke out against S-Comm, Governor Cuomo has officially suspended it. Victory!
New York is only the second state in the country -- Illinois was first -- to pull out of S-Comm, and this is a big win! Together we've sent the message that we will fight for the rights of all immigrants and that there is no place for ICE's mass deportation program in New York -- or anywhere else in the U.S. We need to continue our work to stop S-Comm in every state. Please sign the national petition for a moratorium on S-Comm: http://bit.ly/scommice

Thanks for being part of this amazing victory!
