Texas NOW a Sit-in at Hutchinson's office
 
Call Senator Hutchison, ya'll :grin:

Quote:
Today, day 20 of the hunger strike, seven Texans, including immigrant youth and their allies, are staging a sit-in in Senator Hutchison's San Antonio office, urging her to join them in supporting the DREAM Act, legislation based on hard work, education, and service.

"We've done everything. For years, we've called, we've lobbied, we've gathered petitions, and we've been on hunger strike for over two weeks. This country's future cannot wait anymore. It's time to pass the DREAM Act," Lucina Martinez, DREAM-eligible undocumented student at UTSA.

Right now, all eyes are on Texas and we need your help to make sure we can make an impact.

Take Action:

Call Senator Hutchison in Washington D.C., and ask her to support the DREAM Act: 866.996.5161

Hi, my name is ____, and I'm calling to ask Senator Hutchison to support immigrant youth in Texas and invest in the future of our country by supporting the DREAM Act. Thanks!

^^^ Alright thanks. I've never called the Senator before so I'm kind of nervous on what to say. Will they trace my call or something?

They won't trace your call. The process is really short and simple. You call 210-340-2885, and you ask to leave a message for the Senator. And then you say something among the lines of "I am asking the Senator to support the DREAM Act as it is written when it comes up for a vote in the Senate." And then they will ask you for your Texas zip code (see above).

It takes about a minute.
