It’s happening at last! As you may have heard, the Obama Administration is making immigration reform a priority now. We just need to secure the requisite votes in Congress. In addition to uniting families sooner, we expect the reform will reduce the needless wait time our talented international clients currently endure simply to file their final permanent residence cases. We’ve lobbied hard for you over the years, but we’ve never been this close. Please take 30 seconds to send a (free) fax to your Senators, Representative, and Congressional leadership right now. Then, kindly forward this to any interested friends and family.
We have some big news.This week, hundreds of allied organizations launched the campaign to Reform Immigration FOR America in cities all across the country — from Los Angeles to Maine, Miami to Seattle. Today, a broad coalition of allies from labor, business, and community groups officially kicked off the national campaign in Washington, DC. The American Immigration Lawyers Association is a part of this exciting grassroots movement to reform immigration, and we invite you to join us.
On June 4th, over 700 advocates are descending on Capitol Hill to tell Congress:
“We cannot wait any longer. America needs to reform immigration now.”
We can’t afford to fly you out to DC to join them in person, but we can give you a 1-click way to make sure we have impact.Please take 30 seconds to send a (free) fax to your Senators, Representative, and Congressional leadership right now
Then please forward this to friends and family. Our goal is to back up those 700 advocates on the Hill with 2,500 phone calls and 20,000 faxes.
Here’s our thinking: President Obama has said reforming the immigration system is a priority for him. But it’s going to take more than just having the President on our side to win. We need 279 votes to pass comprehensive immigration reform: 218 US Representatives + 60 Senators + the President’s signature. So over the coming months, we’re going to be asking you to help us flood Congress and the White House with faxes, calls, emails, and visits to say (each in our own way):
Our economy and thousands of families are suffering under the burden of a broken system. The time has come for just and humane immigration reform. We cannot wait any longer.
Together, we can make this happen.
P.S. Here’s some more background on the issue:American-born workers suffer if there is a vast pool of undocumented workers who are easily exploited by employers who seek unfair advantage. All of us are stronger if all of us have rights.
Untargeted raids in workplaces and neighborhoods and rogue enforcement agents at all levels are terrorizing immigrant workers and dividing families without making us any safer and without fixing the real problems with our immigration system.
Our out-of-date laws force many American families to remain separated for years – and in some cases, decades – because of backlogs and barriers to family unification in our immigration system.
Finally, our outdated laws are practically unenforceable, driving too much immigration into the black market and not enough immigration through legal and orderly channels for immigrants who want to work in this country.
The result is hundreds of thousands of immigrants being detained each year, hundreds of thousands deported, people forced to take life-threatening risks because they cannot enter legally, people dying in the desert, and people dying in detention due to awful conditions and official neglect.
