Rally: Long Islanders stand with Dreamers

February 6, 2018 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm

Join a broad coalition of Rep. Zeldin’s constituents to stand in solidarity with Dreamers and all immigrants, and demand Zeldin’s action for a clean #dreamactNOW.

The moment is urgent: Since President Trump’s cruel repeal of DACA, over 17,000 Dreamers have already lost their status. Without the Dream Act, 800,000 young immigrants would lose their work permits and jobs, ability to support their families, and would be subject to being arrested, detained, and deported to countries they barely remember.

In advance of the February 8th spending bill deadline, we’re gathering to hold Rep. Zeldin accountable and remind him that his refusal to support the Dream Act is a moral failure.

As Rep. Zeldin’s constituents, we’re calling on our Member of Congress to represent ALL his constituents by fighting for a Dream Act and protections for all immigrants.

ALL are welcome to join us as we unequivocally say that Long Islanders stand with Dreamers and all immigrants.

CO-SPONSORS: Make the Road NY, New York Immigration Coalition, Bend the Arc: NY, Progressive East End Reformers, Resist and Replace, Long Island Activists, Get 2 Work LI, Suffolk Progressives, Show Up Long Island, ATLI, Let’s Visit Lee Zeldin, SEPA Mujer
