Long Island Wins Responds To Election Results: We Must Work Together To Make Sure This Country Continues To Be For All of Us

Elections are about people and choices. Though the nation has chosen a direction that appears to wall off opportunity and protections for immigrants, LGBTQ, Muslims, women and people of color, now is the time to renew our commitment to help those that will be most affected. The reality is that millions of hard working families wake up every day with questions about their futures and what will await the next generation of Americans. Now is NOT the time to slink back into the shadow but to embrace the constitutionally guaranteed rights of free speech and free association. We must lend our voices to those who seek a new life here and work to ensure that reality.

The last few days have been difficult for so many in our country and right here on Long Island. One in seven Long Islanders is an immigrant. They are our neighbors, our friends, our co-workers, our classmates. Long Island Wins stands firmly and strongly with our immigrant and all affected communities as we face new challenges in our long fight to uphold our founding values of liberty and justice for all.

Please make a donation to Long Island Wins so we can continue to work towards a Long Island that’s willing and able to make full use of the talents of everyone who chooses to call Long Island home, and embrace the cultural richness that a diverse Long Island offers.

Together we can send a strong message that we are a Long Island community that will fight for justice for all!
