What is the Stand With Refugees campaign?
Stand With Refugees is a nationwide campaign for refugees, sponsored by a broad coalition of nonprofits, corporations, and individuals, including U.S. refugee resettlement agencies that resettle and assist refugees worldwide and in the United States.
How can I get involved?
Take a stand by filling out the form above, and we'll connect you with your representative and senators. It only takes a few minutes to call.
When do I call?
Right now from June 12 to 16, take action by calling your representatives and senators to tell them: We welcome refugees. Be sure to call during office hours in order for your representative to answer. Here's a sample script for reference:
“Hi, I’m your constituent from [City, State], and I support refugee resettlement. I want the United States to be a welcoming country for refugees. I ask for your support to do everything you can to support refugees abroad and in the United States. I also ask that you would publicly announce your support for refugees on World Refugee Day, June 20th.”

What difference will it make?
Your voice is a powerful thing, especially when it’s joined by tens of thousands. On June 12-16, our phone calls will flood the switchboard of Congress and tell our policymakers that we are a welcoming country.
