We have hit 100!!!!! and we are growing rapidly as you all continue to share these efforts and educate your own communities. We must keep the border crisis at the forefront of our minds, and continue to reach into our own communities for support through signing this petition, making donations, providing volunteer hours, or contacting our representatives in Washington.
Find your Representatives at www.commoncause.org.
Here is an example letter to Congressman (or Senator) for those of you that are unsure of where to begin.
Also, an eloquent and straightforward voicemail to work off of, developed by another supporter, Emily K. (Etna, ME):
Senator/Congressman _____________:
My name is ________ and I am your constituent from CITY/State.
Considering the inhumane circumstances in which migrant children are being exposed to, I urge you to demand better programs be implemented to protect the safety and health of these children and their families.
Thank you all so much for your involvement so far. We have a long way to go, and need everyone on deck to address this continued human rights crisis at our own border. Please continue to share.
Financial donations and volunteer time can be provided to this cause through RAICES (Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services) at www.raicestexas.org.
