Press Release

Cincinnati, OH -- Tuesday, June 19th at 11:00am there will be a children’s rally for immigration reform. This will take place in front of Cincinnati City Hall at 801 Plum Street.

This is to highlight that immigration reform is a local issue and not just a national issue. It does directly affect families here in the Cincinnati area. It is also to send a message to our politicians that family unity is an integral part to any immigration reform, whether it takes the form of allowing a means for parents of children to become legal, or for those that are already legal and perhaps even U.S. citizens to still be able to petition for their close relatives, such as adult children and parents, to rejoin the family living here, or for American citizens who have open their hearts and have included in their families, children adopted from other countries.

Family has been and hopefully still is one of our most important American values.

Hopefully the children will also learn a little about our local government so the lessons they learn in school will no longer be something just in a book, but will be made real by personal experience.
