For years our politicians have promised us fair and just immigration reform, but year after year we are simply left with more of the same – immigration raids that destroy communities and deportations that separate families with no end in sight.

We must ensure that 2010 will be the year of true change! We are expecting real immigration reform and we are going to start the push for that reform by taking the matter into our own hands. Will you join us?

Beginning this New Year’s Day, Friday January 1st, 2010, my friends and I are going to be marching from Miami, Florida to Washington D.C. to demand from President Obama that he stop the deportation of DREAMers and the separation of families. We are walking for just and humane immigration reform that includes equal access to education, an end to the separation of families, worker’s rights, and a pathway to citizenship.

If you want to learn more about what you can do to help the push for immigration reform in 2010, then join us on this call. We will let everyone know about what we have planned for our trip, how they can help and how, together, we can reach our goals!
