Dear Casa San Jose Amigos,
We are getting in touch to ask you to impact some
legislation that would cause even more suffering to our community.
Please contact your Pennsylvania state
representatives to demand they vote NO on pending PA Legislation attacking
sanctuary cities and campuses that are trying to protect undocumented
immigrants from rapid and often illegal deportation efforts without access to
legal help.
Find your state representative here: http://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/legis/home/findyourlegislator/
Click
on the Representative’s name to get to his/her web page, and the contact
information is under the photo. To
email, click on the letter icon on the left; to call, see the phone numbers
underneath.
The
Representatives listed below are especially important to contact. They are Democrats that have supported
anti-immigrant legislation in the past and could vote the right way if enough
constituents call them. So if one of
these is yours, you get extra points!

Costa (412) 361-2040

Bill Kortz (412) 466-1940

SCRIPT:
“Hello,
my name is _____ and I live at ______ (important because they only want to hear
from their own constituents.)
Please
do not support anti-immigrant bills because (use any of the following or your
own reasons)
·
they tear families apart
·
they do nothing to make our country safer
·
they are unconstitutional
·
they keep vital workers and contributing community members away from our
region
·
they are the opposite of our country’s tradition of openness and
generosity
·
any personal story or feelings – those are powerful.
Many
thanks for your help,
The Casa
San Jose family
