Dozens of Republican members of Congress are speaking out against President Trumps executive order on refugees. These members need encouragement to call on the president to rescind the executive order entirely.

The executive order released on January 27 halts refugee admissions and effectively bans Muslims from seven countries. It’s particularly important for Republican members of Congress who are expressing concerns to hear support from constituents, since those members are likely to face criticism from within their party. See who is speaking out.

This executive order is just one example of this administration’s actions on refugee and immigration policy that will do deep damage to our country. Ultimately, Congress should suspend all of the executive orders on refugees and immigration to allow for a full review of the consequences of these actions.

Our elected officials must do all they can to revoke the refugee executive order, which is a stain on our nation’s conscience. If your members of Congress have spoken out against the order, please say thank you.
