(NATIONAL ACTION) We need your help TODAY to show that Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders are invested in and will take action to pass immigration reform this year! Across the country, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) will flex their political muscle during the National Week of Action (Aug. 17-24) to show that we want fair and humane immigration reform NOW.
Support the National Asian American Week of Action through one easy step:
Text “AAPI” to 69866
TODAY – THURSDAY, AUG. 20th
You will be asked to reply with your zip-code and email to become a part of the national Reform Immigration for America campaign’s Cell Phone Action Network. As a part of the network, you will receive periodic text messages on the latest news and action opportunities around immigration reform, specific to your state or local community.
With more than 1.2 million AAPIs who are undocumented and need to be legalized, more than 2 million waiting abroad to join close family members through the family-based immigration system, and the ongoing detention and deportation of community members, AAPIs have a huge stake in having comprehensive immigration reform legislation passed and enacted.
