The Immigrant Justice Platform (IJP) is a collective of immigrants and immigrant rights groups who came together to advocate for a shared platform of policy and budget priorities that directly benefit the DC immigrant community and change the systems by disrupting the status quo.

In January, DC immigrants and immigrant justice organizers came together to create a shared platform of legislative and budget priorities that benefit DC’s immigrant communities — thus the Immigrant Justice Platform (IJP) was born! Over the course of the spring we advocated together for the platform. We celebrated many victories and even expanded the platform to include more legislative and budget goals!
