You are invited to participate in a Day of Action for the “With the Stroke of a Pen” Campaign on June 30th!
This past weekend, New York Immigration Coalition (NYIC) participated in an immigration forum hosted by Congresswoman Yvette Clarke with special guest Congressman Luis Gutierrez where the Pen Campaign was a HUGE HIT! Check out pictures from the event here. Nearly every person in the room signed a letter to the President. The excitement about the campaign was phenomenal!! Now, it is time to build on that momentum for the NYIC Day of Action.
As part of a National Day of Action organized by FIRM, a number of states across the country are also hosting events urging President Obama to take action to STOP UNJUST DEPORTATIONS!
Will you participate, too?
NYIC will join the National Day of Action by sponsoring a blitz across New York to promote its Pen Campaign! They will also launch our blog!
Here’s how you can get involved:
1. Spend one hour collecting signed Pen Campaign letters at a location in New York (click here to download 1. Info Sheet, 2. Letter to Obama)
2. Sponsor the Pen Campaign and Spread the word!!! www.pencampaign.com
Please contact Emily at immigrationintern2@thenyic.org this week to let NYIC know if you will be participating so they can include your organization in their press materials. NY Faith & Justice signed up! Join us!
