August Recap

The voice for immigration reform showed up. Some highlights for the month:

• 82,000 contacts (phone calls, letters, and faxes) to Hill offices – including nearly 1,000 letters sent by CoWorld members
• 600 local media hits
• 350 congressional meetings
• 130 town hall meetings

This is not silence.  This is not apathy.  This is not disinterest. 

Because of these efforts, 26 House Republicans....and counting.....plan to support immigration reform and citizenship.

There's a lot going on these days. There's the budget (my husband works for the government....this is ever present in our home).  There's Syria, Gun Control, race issues, and more... It is important to remember that these are all important---and immigration reform is just as important!  A lot is being done by the pro-immigration supporters.

But there is more to be done. See what others have been doing throughout the last month:
