Call to Action: Join Our Vigil for Humane Immigration Reform & Tell Congress Reform is Needed Now!

Today, December 15, 2009, Congressman Luis Gutierrez and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus introduced their immigration reform bill, the Comprehensive Immigration Reform for America's Security Act and Prosperity (CIR ASAP Act), a comprehensive plan that clearly lays out many of the realistic solutions that we have been pushing for.

Our work has gotten us this far and Congressman Gutierrez has kept his commitment but the fight isn't over. Now, it is time to step it up. Now is a crucial moment for our movement and we must come together to show why these reforms cannot wait!

Send a message to Congress to support the CIR ASAP Act. Go to the link below to send your message:
