Thank you to all our volunteers, supporters, and elected officials for making last nights event such a huge success. The Teamsters Hall echoed as over 2000 people gathered chanting “yes we can” in English, Spanish, Korean, Polish, Cantonese, French, and Arabic. The night was filled with heartfelt speeches by Mayor Richard Daley, Il Rep Luis V. Gutierrez, Chicago City Clerk Miguel del Valle, Attorney General Lisa Madigan, and many others. Individuals directly effected by the current flawed immigration policy were able to share their stories. Members of the religious community also added their say in the importance of human dignity and fair immigration policy and Asian and Muslium political representation. All of these voices came together to form a firm commitment to fight for just and humane immigration – to vote; and to help our friends and family make their voice heard.
