Call Schumer: Tell Him To Meet With DREAM Kids
A group of young supporters of the DREAM Act began a hunger strike last week to call for the passage of the legislation. Their immediate demand is for Senator Schumer to meet with them. The senator told them he would meet on June 18, but the youth feel that that’s too late, as the window of opportunity to move the DREAM Act is closing fast.
So the New York Immigration Coalition asks you to:
Call Senator Schumer and ask him to meet with the youth this week, since many of them are dehydrated and may soon suffer very dangerous physical damage.
Schumer’s D.C. office phone number: 202-224-6542; and NYC office phone number: 212-486-4430
