Action Alert: Please Call Your Iowa Congressional Representatives to Support the “Crowley Comprehensive Immigration Reform Letter!”
Gifted young people denied higher education and communities robbed of future leaders... Hardworking mothers and fathers ripped apart from their families... Local rural economies left in ruins... Workers left in the shadows abused and fearful of standing up for their rights...
This is the reality of the effects of our broken immigration system, and President Obama wants to wait to fix it for another year.
It’s our job to encourage him to know that our nation cannot wait for Comprehensive Immigration Reform. Call your representative and tell them we can’t wait!
There is a letter circulating that needs the support of Iowa’s Representatives. The purpose of this letter (drafted by Rep. Crowley, New York) is for members of Congress to tell President Obama they support Comprehensive Immigration Reform, calling on him to move forward with CIR now and not wait another year to get it passed.
The deadline for Representatives to sign on to the letter is today, Wednesday, August 19!
Call your Representative now and ask that they sign-on to the “Crowley Comprehensive Immigration Reform letter.”
