A week ago, our hearts were broken by the photo of a
little boy, drowned, lying alone in the sand.But new images of people with open
arms welcoming exhausted Syrian refugees the world over have begun to put our
hearts back together. The profound decency of ordinary folks is
driving governments to respond to this crisis.
----------
Now it's America's turn to act.
That's why MoveOn members and our friends are
launching AmericaWelcomes, an urgent national campaign to raise the number
of Syrian refugees admitted into the U.S. to at least 100,000 and to encourage
people in local communities across the country to open their hearts and extend a
welcome.
