Make a call for Hilda and Alirio!

Make a call for Hilda and Alirio! Rep. Joaquin Castro (202) 225-3236; Rep. Will Hurd (202) 225-4511.<br /> What to say when you call:<br /> I'm calling to ask the representative to use their congressional power to ask ICE for discretion on their cases. Hilda is now missing the fourth year of her young son's life because of living in sanctuary, while Alirio's health has deteriorated during this year in sanctuary. I am one of the hundreds of people asking the representative to intervene for Hilda and Alirio. They have taken great risks fighting for their lives and their families, please match their courage and do the right thing!

Make the call now!

Hilda, Alirio, and their supporters are in the offices of Rep. Castro and Rep. Hurd calling on them to do everything in their power to intercede with ICE to exercise discretion so that Hilda, Ivan, and Alirio can finally walk free.

We know that they have the power to make this happen. These three courageous individuals are fighting for their lives. Please call Rep. Castro and Rep. Hurd now!

ACTION TOMORROW

Please join us as we rally to ask Congressman Castro to step in to help Alirio, Hilda and Ivan gain their freedom from the constant and imminent threat of deportation.

The address is: 727 E César E. Chávez Blvd #B-128, San Antonio, TX 78206

His office is inside the federal building and we are meeting outside at 11am.
