“Dreamer Program” at Risk

“Ten Republican state attorneys general in June urged the administration to rescind the DACA program, while noting that the government did not have to revoke permits that had already been issued.

If the federal government did not withdraw DACA by Sept. 5, the attorneys general said they would file a legal challenge to the program in a Texas federal court.

The 10 who signed the letter represent Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and West Virginia.”

The Latest On Healthcare

Thanks to your action and advocacy, the Senate’s attempt to repeal the Affordable Care Act failed

Tonight’s advocacy event is canceled, but we will still bring a RaisingVoicesUSA contingent to Saturday’s March for our Lives. Join us as we stand with people in over 60 cities across the country to let our elected officials know that we want them to work together on common sense, compassionate healthcare reform.

Details about Saturday’s March for our Lives in NYC.
On Saturday, July 29 from 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm, RaisingVoicesUSA members will join people in over 27 states as we march in support of common sense, compassionate healthcare for all Americans. If you are coming from Long Island, meet us on the platform at the Rockville Centre LIRR Station at 12:45 pm (taking the 1:03 pm train to Penn Station, then the E subway line to 5th Avenue/53d Street station). Learn more about the March for our Lives. Please email arielle_kane@hotmail.com if you plan to join us for the march.

Informed civic engagement has the power to effect change. Thank you to everyone who raised your voice on this crucial issue!
