Endorsements

Bringing our movement to the halls of power.

The only way to get what we want, a Thriving Home for all regardless of economic and legal status, is to radically change who is representing us in office. We work to elect more pro-immigrant champions to public office through our endorsement process. Our grassroots leaders decide the priorities, ask tough questions, and recommend legislators who they believe have earned our endorsement.

We use our endorsements to build immigrant rights champions in political office and hold them accountable to making progress for our communities. We do this by developing a vision with our elected leaders for how we govern together and use their seat of power to advance big, bold changes to our immigration, education and democratic systems. We ask for commitments on the campaign trail and hold elected leaders accountable to follow through for our communities.

“I started as an intern at OneAmerica years ago and while there, I had the opportunity to grow as a professional, flourish in community, and truly understand my purpose. It is an honor to continue to serve my community today as a Port of Seattle Commissioner and work together with OneAmerica to build a state where immigrants and refugees can thrive.”
