Tell Congress: Support the path to citizenship!
from Donna De La Cruz, Reform Immigration FOR America
Major immigration news this week: President Obama and Senate leaders have each introduced their own plan for comprehensive immigration reform. At the center of both plans is a pathway to citizenship for 11 million undocumented Americans.
This didn't happen by accident. It came as a result of years of action and agitation by people like you. We set the agenda, we called for more than just talk, and we demanded that our leaders rise to the challenge to make real and lasting reform a reality.
But this fight is not over -- in fact it’s only getting started. We need to let our Congressional leaders know that their work is not over until they finally pass comprehensive immigration reform that creates a path to citizenship for 11 million undocumented Americans.
Not all of our legislators believe we need such reform. A small but vocal group of anti-immigrant bullies would rather see 11 million people rounded up and deported than have a chance at the American dream. They have done everything in their power to keep our country from taking up the cause of just and humane reform -- but our movement demands action.
Just as we made our voices heard during the election in November, we need to make sure once more that we are the loudest voice in Washington. Once more we will show our strength by holding Congress accountable and calling on our legislators to ensure justice and equality for our families.
Add your name now to our national sign-on letter and tell Congress we demand nothing less than a path to citizenship for 11 million immigrants working and living in our communities.
We will deliver your signature along with those of thousands of other immigrant rights activists across the country, and ensure that your message is heard loud and clear.
Add your name today.
With hope,
Donna De La Cruz
