Hello everyone,
I am writing to say a sincere thank you. Because of you, our petition, "A Pathway to Legal Status: Recognizing the Dignity of America’s Invisible Workforce," has reached 1,294 signatures.
This movement is now officially supporting the DIGNITY Act (H.R. 4393), the bipartisan bill introduced by Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar and Rep. Veronica Escobar. In 2026, I see this bill as the only real, common-sense solution to stop the chaos occurring across the country and finally bring millions of long-term residents—people like my parents—out of the shadows.
You are not just a number on a list; you are the foundation of a movement. Whether you signed because of your own family, like my parents who gave 25 years of hard labor to this country, or because you believe in a safer, more just America—your voice matters.
To truly get the attention of Congress this year, we must be unavoidable. We are building a "national coalition" that cannot be ignored. Our new goal is 100,000 signatures.
I have a special request for you today: To reach 100k, I need my first 1,294 supporters to lead the way. Could you take two minutes to do one of the following?
- The "Power of 3" Rule: Forward this email or send the petition link to just 3 people you know. Tell them why you signed.
- Share on Social Media: Post the link on Facebook or X. If you use X, tag @RepMariaSalazar and @RepEscobar so they see our numbers growing!
- Leave a Comment: Go back to the petition page and leave a "Reason for Signing." Personal stories move the hearts of lawmakers more than statistics.
To my immigrant community: Thank you for your courage. By signing, you are stepping out of the shadows and demanding the dignity you have already earned through years of hard work.
We are stronger together. Let's keep going until we hit 100,000.
With gratitude,
Juan Carlos Centeno Vazquez Lead Petitioner
