The Dignity of Immigrants

Recent events across the country have prompted concern about constitutional protections, the rule of law, and the treatment of immigrants. We believe this is a time to publicly reaffirm principles that unite our community. We support the Constitution and the rule of law, including transparency, accountability, and due process for all. We support peaceful protest and civic engagement – essential freedoms in a healthy democracy.

We affirm the dignity of every person in our community. Immigrants – whether long-settled residents, mixed-status families, or those navigating the asylum or naturalization process — are part of the fabric of Wilton. They are us. They are our neighbors, colleagues, business owners, classmates, and friends. Every person deserves to be treated with fairness, due process,
and respect.

Wilton has long valued civility, compassion, and community. We can uphold those traditions and ensure our town remains
welcoming, safe, lawful, and grounded in democratic principles.

Let us be united in this cause.
