News for Amigos de Casa San José: December 1, 2017

Dear Casa San José Amigos,
Welcome back to our weekly message!  Here’s what’s new:

Come visit us at our new office at our Open House this Sunday!
  • Where: 2116 Broadway Ave. Pittsburgh, PA 15216
  • When: Sunday, December 3, 2017
  • Time: 1:30 – 3:30 pm
ACTION:
  • DHS has begun its cancellation of TPS, or Temporary Protected Status, a humanitarian program. It protects foreign nationals from designated countries, who are already in the US, from being sent back to home countries that have become unsafe due to natural disasters, armed conflict, etc.  The vast majority of recipients are from El Salvador (195,000), Honduras (57,000), and Haiti (50,000).  The administration has just ordered all the Nicaraguans and Haitians sent back. Some have been here for over 20 years. The other countries await. It will help to: join the march (above) if you can, contact the White House and your congressional representatives, and share this information with others. 
NEWS:
SUGGESTED if you'd like to see more:  Here's something positively enjoyable:  Coco the film, a beautiful story of a Mexican family, music, adventure, and love as they celebrate Día de Muertos.
