Leadership Call in Day – Wednesday, June 11th
Speaker John Boehner could bring up for a vote a series of immigration reform bills within the next two weeks (June 9-20).
Please call this toll-free number (1-855-589-5698), you will be connected to the office of either Speaker Boehner, Majority Leader Cantor or Majority Whip McCarthy. The House Leadership has been holding off on immigration reform until after the majority of the GOP primaries were completed. Rep. Eric Cantor’s primary (one of the last in the country) will end on Tuesday, June 10th, so the House Leadership should have nothing else holding them back.
June 11th will be an important day to send a strong message to the House Leadership, that we need to act now to fix the broken immigration system. Please take a few minutes to make a call! Thank you!
