*****MEDIA ADVISORY FOR TOMORROW MAY 23, 11:45 AM EST*****
 LATINO YOUTH TO PROTEST RUBIO/ROMNEY DUO AT SUMMIT FOR HARMFUL IMMIGRATION  & ECONOMIC POSITIONS

Washington, DC – While Sen. Marco Rubio has said that undocumented children and the children of undocumented immigrants were blameless, his legislative record hasn’t followed his rhetoric.  Rubio recently introduced legislation (S. 3083) to restrict the child tax credit to US citizens only.  This tax credit is designed to help children, not their parents, and in 2009 was credited with preventing 1.3 million children from sinking into poverty.  
Undocumented youth and U.S. citizen children of undocumented immigrants will be rallying outside the Chamber of Commerce to pressure Rubio to retract S.3083 and distance himself from Romney who has taken an unacceptable and harmful stance on immigration. Rubio and Romney fail to understand that the immigrant community, particularly undocumented youth, are starting businesses at a faster rate than native born citizens. By embracing anti-immigrant legislation they are not only attacking Latino families but also hurting Latino businesses and the U.S. Economy.

WHO: DC & MD DREAMers and U.S. citizen children of undocumented immigrants. 
WHAT: Rally to protest Rubio/Romney Duo for their Harmful Immigration and Economic Positions.
WHEN: May 23, 2012 - 11:45 pm ET
WHERE: U.S. Chamber of Commerce at 1615 H Street, NW, Washington, DC 20062.


DRM Capitol Group serves as a voice for undocumented youth and lobbying arm of the dream movement. Our work ensures that undocumented youth are represented in the halls of power and are correctly and directly informed of the actions of Congress, Executive Agencies, and the Courts.

#TEAMJSA ! 



We are back in full force! Here is what is coming up:

Thank you for your continual support!


We are actually planning a voter registration concert for August 17th and are looking for artists to have and get the promotion underway! It will be held at the silver spring civic center and we are expecting around 500-700 people.

Aside from that we have pool parties, movie nights, and panels with politicians in mind. While at the same time, doing grassroot actions like going door to door in different communities and getting signatures by hand, going to churches, etc. We will need volunteers so please let us know if you are interested! jroa@thejsamovement.org


We are trying to also plan a few days for demonstrations in DC and Annapolis. For right now, we are going to be at the Telemundo event for dia de las madres in Silver Spring on May 20th, Fenton Street Market next weekend in Silver Spring on May 26th, and a dream act panel May 24 at 7 p.m. at the Silver Spring Civic Building!
