Dear Friends,<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks to overwhelming numbers of calls, FAX transmittals, visits, and email, all three of the bills upholding the protections and rights for immigrants have passed.<\/span><\/p>\n

YOU did this.\u00a0 Your witness for Muslims, for all immigrants, for due process and legal assistance, all have passed.<\/span><\/p>\n

SB 6, SB 31, and SB 54 all passed in the Senate where we seriously doubted they could.\u00a0 We would not have convinced the “worried middle” Senators had you not spoken out so clearly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for all you did on behalf of embattled and at-risk populations.\u00a0 It matters.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now we will have a breather.\u00a0 The legislature goes on Spring Break starting Thursday April 6 through Easter Sunday.\u00a0 As soon as they come back, our work shifts to the other house, the Assembly, and we will let you know what are our “next steps” on this and other concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for your presence on behalf of humanity.\u00a0 We are grateful beyond words for your care<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
