Good morning everyone,

 

We have an urgent update to share with you all concerning Maxine Waters, Representative of the 35th District in CA and member of the Judiciary Committee.


Representative Waters has been a pro-immigrant legislator for many years now but recently she has been targeted by anti-immigrant groups regarding the E-Verify piece of legislation moving its way in Congress today! This bill most likely will be coming up for a vote in the Judiciary Committee this afternoon.

 

We are asking folks to call her office and request that  she oppose H.R. 2164 “Legal Workforce Act” and that she stand with the immigrant community in California.

 

Her D.C. office number is: (202) 225 – 2201

Los Angeles office is: (323) 757 - 8900

 

 

Please forward to your networks.

 

Other members of the Judiciary who will be voting today include:

 

Howard Berman – D28                  (202)225-4695

Zoe Lofgren – D16                           (202)225-3072

Judy Chu – D32                                 (202)225-5464

Linda Sanchez – D39                       (202)225-6676

 

 

Thank you,

 

 

Rey
