Dear Senator Stack,

As a group of citizens in legislative district 33, we are greatly concerned with the anti-immigration hostility which is being fomented by President-elect Trump.

First, we want to thank you for joining forces with local Mayors and denouncing the apprehension or detention of our area's unauthorized immigrants. We vigorously oppose this and any other state-sanctioned racism in the form of a Muslim registry, mass deportation and a wall with Mexico.

We'd like to hear from you about your other efforts to bring our diverse community together. There is a golden opportunity for elected officials and community leaders to act right now.

Your public safety campaign “If you see something, say something” has been such a success due to a synchronized dissemination of public information and resources. This directive policy and approach should also apply to any discrimination that is witnessed in our neighborhoods.

We’re interested in taking specific positive steps forward at this time. In this spirit, we would support a community forum for the purposes of civil discourse and cultural understanding, led by our local municipalities and interfaith ministers. We support any undertaking to unify our diverse and dynamic religious and ethnic
communities.

In this destabilizing time, we want to make our community stronger through alliances. We’re looking to you for steady leadership as we head into the unknown political landscape of 2017.

Thank you, Mayor Stack, for already making Union City a sanctuary city for immigrants. Please continue working with NJ mayors and other elected officials to stand up to anti-immigrant movements in our county and state.

NOT A SIGNATURE You are greatly concerned with the anti-immigration hostility!!! This is so wrong in so many ways. What has been said over and over: USA immigration laws and policies which must be followed. Emigrants is a back bone of our country, approving illegals puts our family's in harms way. But since you are siding with illegals instead of with your fellow Americans who wishes to see law & order, and have proper planning and preparation for immigrants that wishes to come to your country the legal rout. I think all good Americans should not sign this petition.
