Religious campaign seeks immigration stories
Religious campaign seeks immigration stories
March 4, 2009 4:15 PM ET
DALLAS (AP) - Religious and community leaders are asking for testimony from U.S. citizens and legal residents separated from family members by deportation or detention.
Pastor Freddy Santiago told reporters in Dallas today that those with the most compelling stories will be asked to offer their testimony this month.
It's a push for immigration reform.
El Paso and Mission also will be among more than a dozen cities hosting community meetings at churches to push for reforms to immigration policies.
The national campaign aims to show the public that the immigration policies of recent years have not just affected immigrants -- but U.S. citizens as well.
In Texas, the meetings are scheduled:
March 13 at Templo de Alabanza in El Paso
March 14 at Jesucristo Es Mi Refugio Church in Dallas
and March 15 at Iglesia del Pueblo in Mission.
