Immigration activists hang on crosses in front of White House

A protester ties the wrists of immigration activist Jose Landaverde to a wooden cross during a direct action by the National TPS Alliance at the White House. Activists are hanging on crosses all day to symbolize the sacrifice immigrants make to contribute to life in the US by long, hard work. Protesters are demanding that Congress, the Biden Administration, and the Democratic Party end dehumanizing treatment of immigrants in general, but especially at the border.
