Dear MLOV Community,
These election results have stirred a range of emotions in our team and community. In the face of these results, our work and commitment to empowering the immigrant community in the Washington, DC area becomes even more important. Let us remember that progress does not only lay in the hands of those who hold elected office, it also lives in the strength, unity, and resilience of our community.
Regardless of the office holders at the national level, we can always focus on what we can control in our communities. We build strength by being civically engaged in our local neighborhoods, supporting local programs, participating in community movements, and other collective efforts. In the history of the US, these movements have created large and long-lasting impacts. There are countless ways to make a difference right here in our community.
MLOV will always be an advocate for immigrants in the DC area, and we are ready to face any challenge to protect the dignity and rights of all. Our determination and unity with our community members are our greatest strength. Together we create a brighter future.
