Unaccompanied immigrant children in California are still being asked to face immigration court alone—often in a language they don’t speak, after surviving trauma and long journeys. The Children’s Holistic Immigration Representation Program (CHIRP) pairs these kids with attorneys and social‑service providers who help them enroll in school, access health care and food, and navigate complex legal systems with dignity and safety.

CHIRP’s current funding is temporary and at risk. Advocates are calling on state leaders to include stable, multi‑year funding (around $33 million) for CHIRP in the upcoming California budget so children are not left without critical support.

You can help in under 5 minutes:

• Call your California Assemblymember and State Senator and ask them to fully fund CHIRP and make it a budget priority.

• Share this action with friends, family, and community groups.

• Follow and boost organizations like Acacia Center for Justice and local immigrant‑rights groups who are leading this fight.

When we fund CHIRP, we’re choosing to protect children, keep families together, and live up to California’s values of fairness and dignity for all.

After stalling in the Senate last spring, H.R.22 – also known as the SAVE Act – has been reintroduced by Republicans ahead of 2026’s midterms in a continued effort to undermine American voters. We must tell our Representatives to continue to oppose the SAVE Act and any other bill that attempts to disenfranchise voters.

Republicans are busy rolling back federal non-discrimination protections for LGBTQ+ people, so it is important that we in California pass our own. It’s almost end of session and these bills MUST pass.

Tell Our Reps: Protect Protestors from ICE in their Districts

Thank State Senator Scott Wiener for proposing SB627, which would require all law enforcement officials in California to have exposed faces and wear identification. 

We can’t allow the Republicans to steal the next election. Call State Senator Wiener, and your Assemblymember (Haney or Stefani) and tell them that we need to perform mid-decade redistricting in California!

As of 2024 San Francisco was home to 50 billionaires, the highest per-capita level of any city in the world.  A wealth tax affecting only these top earners would create lasting revenue and prevent the kinds of cuts that are about to impact our city. Tell your representatives to support a wealth tax.

Help secure funding for the arts! Stand up for SFBATCO and ask the governor to continue to support nonprofit arts.

The SAVE Act, H.R.22, will disenfranchise millions and hurt millions more. Tell your Representative to vote NO!

Tell Scott Wiener to vote YES on SB 42, the California Fair Elections Act.
