The New York State Interfaith Network for Immigration Reform is a network of individuals and organizations representing and connected to diverse faith communities in New York State. We have formed to advocate for the passage of just and humane immigration reform legislation ("JHIR") as soon as possible.

 

Network members believe that JHIR* is the only approach to immigration reform that is consistent with the values of our faith communities and of our nation, and that can meet our nation's security, economic, and political needs.

 

* = as highlighted in the National Interfaith Immigration Coalition Platform.
