Ask your Congress members to cosponsor the NO BAN Act

Join the National Religious Campaign Against Torture (NRCAT) in urging our U.S. Senators and Representatives to cosponsor the NO BAN Act.

From NRCAT: In President Trump’s first term, through three iterations of executive orders, people from several Muslim-majority and African countries were barred from entering the U.S. on most or all types of visas. On the election trail, he vowed not only to reinstate the “Muslim Ban” he imposed as President in 2017, but to expand it. On his first day back in office this January, he previewed a travel ban which could go into effect at any time between now and March 21. In response, the National Origin-Based Antidiscrimination for Nonimmigrants (NO BAN) Act was reintroduced in the U.S. Congress last week by Rep. Judy Chu in the House of Representatives and Sen. Chris Coons in the Senate. 

CLICK HERE for more information and to urge your U.S. Senators and Respresentatives to sign on as a cosponsor and supporter the NO BAN Act.

CLICK HERE to sign the National Network for Immigrant and Refugee Rights petition to the U.S. Senate: Pass the No Ban Act.

The NO BAN Act has been reintroduced in both the House and Senate by Rep. Chu and Sen. Coons.

The National Origin-Based Antidiscrimination for Nonimmigrants (NO BAN) Act will prevent future Muslim bans.

The bill will strengthen the Immigration and Nationality Act to prohibit discrimination on the basis of religion, and restore checks and balances by limiting overly broad executive authority to issue future travel bans.
