Last week, the Trump administration announced its decision to end the Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals program (DACA), a startling move that puts 800,000 undocumented young AMERICANS into legal limbo.
As a community of people who come from all over the world, who all bring something special to ours, this move hit especially close to home.
So we decided to take a break from gadding about town for New York Fashion Week to make a few calls. Alongside the ACLU and YOLA Mezcal, we hoisted some cocktails and lifted the receiver on our direct-dial phone booth for a little Fashion Week call-a-thon. Old friends and new rang their reps to stand up for undocumented youth and demand a pathway to citizenship.
Should you find yourself in the vicinity of The Standard, High Line, stop by Ring Your Rep to lend your support to these fine young Americans. A reminder that making your voice heard is always free at The Standard. Call script and gifs below.
