legislative priorities

Every year, GALEO Impact Fund presents their legislative priorities ahead of the upcoming legislative session. We aim to inform the Latinx communities and legislators of the top issues we are tracking. 

Endorsements

The GALEO Impact Fund’s candidate endorsement framework uplifts viable candidates for public office and increases Latino-Hispanic representation in our local, state, and national public offices. Through our endorsement, candidates gain exposure, access to GALEO Impact Fund resources, and meaningful insight into our electoral system. The GALEO Impact Fund’s Candidate Endorsement Framework is straightforward. Viable candidates whose values align with ours receive the endorsement after completing our candidate assessment questionnaire, successfully meeting the background search criteria, and gaining the final board approval.

SB 21 will punish local communities for disagreeing with the federal government’s plan to deport our neighbors. The bill will keep local governments tied up in lawsuits instead of actually governing.

🚨 Georgia Criminal Alien Track and Report Act of 2024, antes conocida como HB1105: ¡Lo que necesitas saber! 🚨 Georgia Criminal Alien Track and Report Act of 2024 es una ley de inmigración que impacta a nuestra comunidad en Georgia, y es importante entender cómo nos afecta. 📋 ¿Qué hace esta ley? Los oficiales locales y estatales no están obligados a verificar el estatus migratorio de una persona arrestada, pero pueden optar por hacerlo si la persona no tiene una identificación válida. Esto significa que si tú o un ser querido es arrestado y no puede proporcionar una forma válida de identificación, los oficiales locales o estatales tienen la opción de preguntar sobre el estatus migratorio, lo que podría llevar a consecuencias adicionales como la detención por parte de autoridades de inmigración. ⚖️ ¿Por qué es importante? Es crucial conocer tus derechos, especialmente en situaciones donde puedas no tener una identificación. Asegúrate de siempre portar una identificación válida y entiende los riesgos potenciales de los encuentros con la policía.#galeoimpactfund #georgiacriminalalientrackandreportact ... See MoreSee Less

This Women's Month, we honor the legendary Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a trailblazer for justice, equality, and the rights of all people. ⚖️✨ As the second woman ever appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court, RBG dedicated her life to fighting for fairness and making the world a more equitable place for all. Her words remind us of the power of resilience and determination: “We are a nation made strong by people like you — people who have traveled long distances, overcome great obstacles and made tremendous sacrifices all to provide a better life for themselves and their families.” Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s legacy is a powerful testament to the strength of individuals who never back down in the face of adversity. She fought for every voice to be heard, especially those who had been silenced for too long. 💪💖 Let’s continue her fight for justice and equality, and honor the sacrifices that have paved the way for a better future #WomensMonth #RuthBaderGinsburg #JusticeForAll #Equality #Trailblazer #NeverGiveUp #WomenWhoInspire #GALEOImpactFund ...

🚨URGENT: SB 21 Threatens Our Families, Safety, and Economy 🚨Brian Ramirez, Advocacy Manager for the Georgia Youth Justice Coalition and a Georgia State Student, testified this week against SB 21. SB 21 is an irresponsible anti-immigrant bill that turns local cops into ICE agents, breaks up families, imperils public safety, and wastes millions of tax dollars. It harms immigrant communities, encourages racial profiling, and harms Georgia's economy by pushing out workers who make our farms, construction firms, and restaurants run. This bill is all part of a larger agenda that prioritizes profits over people, putting families in fear and danger. We need to stand stron#stopsb21pSB21 and protect our communities from this bill.
