There could be a brief window of opportunity now through July for the House to act on immigration reform this year. Leadership in the House of Representatives continues to refuse to act on immigration legislation, despite having enough bipartisan votes to enact a bill with a path to citizenship.
Please call: Speaker John Boehner (OH-8) and House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (CA-23) . They need to hear from people of faith that delay is unacceptable, and that they must make immigration reform a reality.
Call 1-866-940-2439 TWICE to be connected with both Speaker Boehner and Majority Whip McCarthy’s offices. You can also call directly: Boehner: (202) 225-0600 and McCarthy: (202) 225-2915.
Sample script: I’m from State, Congregation/Community and as a person of faith, I am outraged that the House has failed to pass immigration reform. The need for reform is urgent, as our broken immigration system tears families and communities apart. I urge House leadership to bring immigration reform up for a vote that will reunite families and lead to citizenship for our undocumented sisters and brothers.
