ACLU Supporter, TIME just recognized one of our partners in the work to defend immigrants.

Greisa Martínez Rosas is the executive director of United We Dream, the largest immigrant youth-led network in the country – and she's just been honored as one of TIME's 100 most influential people of 2026 for her work advocating for DACA recipients.

With the Trump administration's relentless attacks on immigrants, the work Greisa is leading couldn't be more critical. That's why we at the ACLU partnered with Greisa and United We Dream to launch the Defending Our Neighbors Fund last year – a fund that's raised over $14 million to scale up financial support to legal organizations helping immigrant families.

If you agree with Greisa's mission – and you want to help ensure immigrants have access to the legal support they need – please make a contribution to the Defending Our Neighbors Fund today. >> (Please note: this link takes you to a third-party website, defendingourneighbors.org)

It's a privilege to work alongside Greisa. She's mobilized millions of young people to advocate against deportations and help immigrants facing removal. Under her leadership, United We Dream has touched the lives of millions and made a real, tangible difference for immigrants in this country.

When we partnered with Greisa and her team to launch the Defending Our Neighbors Fund, that's exactly the type of impact we wanted to make. Too many families are forced to navigate a complex and punishing immigration system without legal counsel. Children have had to face trained prosecutors alone.

The Defending Our Neighbors Fund helps deliver direct support, including legal representation and, when possible, bond assistance. It's the most direct way to protect everyone's right to due process, keep families together, and increase access to high-quality legal representation.

No one should have to face the immigration system alone. Will you donate now to the Defending Our Neighbors Fund? Your gift today will make an impact in the lives of our immigrant friends and neighbors. (Please note: this link takes you to a third-party website, defendingourneighbors.org)

Congratulations to Greisa on her well-deserved recognition. Her leadership continues to inspire our entire community, and I hope you'll join me in celebrating her work today.
