Caregivers affidavits are essential to safeguard children whose parents have been snatched up by ICE.

Copies are easily available online and should be handed out at every Know Your Rights training session.
Now that kids are back in school, mixed-status families have to prepare for the worst: what if ICE arrests dad or mom while the kids are at school? What happens if children arrive home and no one is there?

Deportation affects all of us, not just immigrants.

For mixed status families, deportation fears cast shadow over new academic year
As the new school year begins, mixed immigration status families face heightened fears about ICE enforcement near schools, creating anxiety that extends far beyond the classroom.

Many people believe that marrying a US citizen automatically gives you citizenship. It doesn't. ❌

That's why AFU is working with Republicans and Democrats to make sure that kids don't grow up without a dad or mom.

American citizens shouldn't be punished for who they fell in love with.

At AFU, we work to support what we call “mixed status families”. That means US citizens and their immigrant husbands/wives who don’t have a pathway to citizenship.

Many of our members — including Republicans, Independents, and Democrats — are sadly facing separation due to deportation.
