  • Make the Road New York (MRNY) is the largest progressive grassroots immigrant-led organization in New York state. The organization works on issues of workers' rights; immigrant and civil rights; environmental and housing justice; justice for transgender, gender nonconforming, intersex, and queer (TGNCIQ) people; and educational justice. It has over 23,000 members and five community centers in Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island, and Westchester County. Since the 2017 inauguration of Donald Trump, Make the Road New York made national headlines for its work to end major banks’ financing of private prisons and immigrant detention centers and for leading protests at JFK Airport following the Trump’s administration’s January 27, 2017, announcement of an executive order suspending entry to refugees and to citizens of seven predominantly Muslim countries. At the state level, the organization has championed legislation for immigrant New Yorkers, such as the New York Dream Act, which provides undocumented students access to financial resources in higher education, and the State Driver's License Access and Privacy Act, restoring access to driver's licenses for all New Yorkers regardless of immigration status. There are now sister Make the Road organizations in Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Nevada. (en)
