Wichita Welcomes Immigrant Workers
Freedom Ride
Sept 27

Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Kansas Workbeat Action Center.

The short explanation of this alert was:
 

Immigrant workers, living and paying taxes in the United States, want the rights to apply for citizenship and reunify their families... rights denied by their undocumented status and outdated laws.The road to citizenship needs a new map. The goal of the Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride is to help draw that map.

Inspired by the Freedom Riders of the Civil Rights Movement, thousands of immigrant workers (and by a coalition of unions, business, immigrant and civil rights organizations, clergy, students, and elected Democratic and Republican leaders) will ride buses to Washington, D.C. and then gather in New York City on October 4, 2003.

Two buses of freedom riders from the San Francisco bay area will arrive in Wichita on September 27 to share their experiences with union members, community activists, and people of faith.

 We invite you to join us in drawing a new map for the road to citizenship. Sign up to endorse the Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride.
