[Guadalajara, Jal. June 7, 2021] Today, Mexican civil society organizations sent a letter to Vice President Kamala Harris during her trip to Mexico underscoring, among other things, the need for immigration reform that provides a solution for the growing number of people in Mexico—now millions—who remain separated from their families, exiled from their country, or permanently displaced due to U.S. immigration and enforcement policies. 

The letter, signed by over 60 organizations and advocacy networks, urges the vice president to remove all barriers to reentry so that these families can reunite. The letter further appeals for expanded consular services for the over 1 million U.S. citizens now living in Mexico due to the deportation of a loved one and unable to access U.S. documents, legal status in Mexico, or education for their children.
