About 250 students and faculty members attended the protest, which was organized by the Cornell Coalition for Inclusive Democracy, Heat Street reported.
“No ban, no wall. Sanctuary for all,” protesters chanted.
The protesters want the upstate New York school to provide illegal immigrants, including those not protected by DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), with special funding.
“Our endangered community members still lack explicit assurance that the institution that took them in will protect them,” Professor Russell Rickford told the Cornell Sun. “That’s shameful.”
The group also wants Cornell to provide on-campus housing for immigrant students who have been warned not to travel overseas, and fight for legislation that protects illegal immigrants.

If true then how did this person obtain a social security card? Steal it? How about lying on their University application. So now she’s a University Vice President and raising hell? Really? I live in Georgia and the american contractors complain that the illegal aliens go into downtown Atlanta and for $2000 obtain a knockoff Social Security card and undercut their wages while they as United States born citizens, many former military are the ones playing by the book and suffer. It’s time for the elitist Ivy League to either clean up their act and follow United States Code and Law or close it down.
In the 2000s, Somali immigrants in the United States began a secondary migration to Maine from other states on account of the area's low crime rate, good schools and cheap housing.
In 2011, there were an estimated 5,000 Somali immigrants in Lewiston.
In 2010, several Somali immigrants, now citizens of the United States and residents of Portland, filed to run for the Maine Legislature. Mohammed Dini ran in District 119 in a Democratic Party primary, and Badr Sharif ran in the Republican Party primary for District 116; both candidates were defeated in primary challenges.[12] Additionally, Portland's Somali community led a campaign to permit non-citizens to vote in municipal elections.[2]

The Vietnamese settlement was structured by our elected politicians and was established in USA Code or law. I never had an issue with it. What about all the USA solders of all color who died in all of the wars or when they had no say in their future as they were drafted. Also all of those solders who enlist do it on the premise that our system of government is just, fair and established in law. Then they get blown up maimed or killed and are ruined forever. So someone who simply wants a better life go's around the system such that those guys died for and all of us that pay into the system including your children get jobbed. Nah
