CITIZENSHIP FOR ALL

NO HUMAN BEING IS ILLEGAL

A NEW CITIZENSHIP STANDARD

NO HUMAN BEING IS ILLEGAL

No one is illegal; this style of language is harmful, dehumanizing, and counter to what makes a better America possible. History teaches us that we are all immigrants, living on land stolen from the First Americans.

NO HUMAN BEING IS ILLEGAL

Ricky believes that we can comprehensively reform America's broken immigration system for the better through the passage of THE AMERICAN DREAM ACT. Enough is enough; it's time to make sense of immigration again.

NO HUMAN BEING IS ILLEGAL

WE ARE ALL REFUGEES & IMMIGRANTS

WE ARE ALL REFUGEES & IMMIGRANTS

WE ARE ALL REFUGEES & IMMIGRANTS

No one is illegal on stolen land.


Ricky unequivocally believes that no human being is illegal; simply referring to the existence of human beings as being against the law is a deliberately dehumanizing, socially destructive linguistic practice, and it must stop immediately.

Ricky believes in an America that enacts a compassionate, yet fair system of immigration;  one that holds true to the longstanding hospitality of America's first and true inhabitants—the Amerindian People. Put plainly, they were here long before any Europeans came ashore. If anyone has a claim to this land, it is them and them alone. We may be a nation of laws, but those laws were made to serve and protect the rights human beings. Let's not forget our humanity here.

Let us not forget that the United States of America is a nation built with the blood of Amerindians, Africans, and many other immigrants,  now living on land long since taken away from those same Amerindians by  European settlers, themselves fleeing persecution for one reason or another, no matter what any fascist may attempt to articulate.

We would be wise to remember this very real chapter in our history. Whether by circumstance or descent, we are all refugees or immigrants, no matter what skin color you are, what language you speak, or what deity you pray to, if at all. 


Ricky believes that the time has come to grant immediate permanent resident status to all undocumented human beings living in the United States, absent a violent criminal record.

A MORE HUMANE IMMIGRATION SYSTEM

WE ARE ALL REFUGEES & IMMIGRANTS

WE ARE ALL REFUGEES & IMMIGRANTS

Ricky believes that the preservation of human rights must be at the forefront of border and immigration policy. Refugees must be welcomed with open arms to the United States of America, not treated as foreign invaders; this can and must begin with the dissolution of the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement, followed by a comprehensive restructuring of our immigration services.

Ricky believes in an America that does not shut the door of opportunity to those fleeing foreign oppression, but welcomes the stranger seeking refuge at our doorstep. Any American claiming to profess a sincere belief in God [יַהְוֶה الله] ought to remember this. 


Ricky believes in an America that builds bridges to welcome strangers into our changing society, not walls keeping innocent children and families out. To do otherwise would further perpetuate our reputation as hypocrites throughout the world. 

Ricky has a very straightforward message for those against refugees coming to  our doorstep—if you are so steadfastly against the idea of refugees flooding—as you claim—into America, stop supporting candidates who promote the same brand of American military imperialism that drive foreign nationals from their homelands in the first place. 


Forcing families to choose between remaining in this country and never seeing their children again and leaving is a horrific policy, and one that is both beneath us as a people and a violation of human rights. These are not mere beliefs, but established facts long stated by the world. 

THE AMERICAN DREAM ACT

The U.S. immigration system is broken, and both liberals and conservatives are to blame for inaction. Too much time has passed without immigration reform.


Ricky believes we will, at last, comprehensively address our immigration crisis through the passage of THE AMERICAN DREAM ACT, which will accomplish the following:


ESTABLISH


  • The Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization Services (BINS) as an agency within the newly-reconstituted U.S. Department of the Interior.


  • A comprehensive refugee and migrant integration program that will ensure job training, foreign skill reciprocity programs, mandatory English-language courses, physical migrant identification + Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), and adequate legal representation for all asylum applicants.


  • A conditional residency program for undocumented immigrants and immediate family members that arrived in the country prior to the age of majority (18).


  • A just Good Moral Character standard for DREAM candidates seeking to expedite their naturalization request.


  • A modernized guest worker visa program to ensure proper revenues are raised from guest worker incomes and additional protections for human trafficking victims.


  • A realistic, seven-year path to citizenship for all qualifying immigrants, reducible to five years for immigrant students completing an accredited four-year college degree or qualifying, accredited vocational program.


  • The U.S. Court of Foreign and Immigration Affairs (USCFIA), designed to deal with any and all immigration-related concerns.


ABOLISH


  • Cold War-inspired policy limitations on migrant entry procedures, such as foreign or domestic Communist Party affiliation potentially rendering a migrant inadmissible.


  • Family separation programs and private detention centers along the U.S.-México border.


  • The points-based immigrant entry system, prioritizing only those arriving as verifiable refugees from dangerous circumstances like human trafficking and other forms of sexual and drug-related abuse.


  • The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), transferring public security responsibilities back to the National Security Agency within the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD).


  • The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), transferring any and all major immigration-related functions to the Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization Services (BINS) within the Department of the Interior (DOI).


DECRIMINALIZE


  • Border crossings by those seeking asylum, guaranteeing migrants with adequate legal representation before an immigration judge.


  • Recreational cannabis use by immigrants.
