November 1-8 Week of Action: Kurakot Panagutin! Overseas Filipinos, Hold the Ghost Government Accountable!

One year after Trump's election and Ambassador Romualdez's remarks for Filipinos to self-deport, we have not let up in our fight! As the situation becomes more dire with more fascist attacks being unleashed on migrants, we must keep getting stronger. We have proven that when we fight together we win and the more that we keep uniting and organizing together that we can have greater victories! Let this be the hope and motivation to take action this week and beyond!
