🚘Today we’re headed to the PA state capitol to lobby for Driver’s Licenses for undocumented immigrants that live in Pennsylvania.

💌We will bring letters that members of the Pennsylvania community have written and deliver them to their legislators.
🎉🎉We’re here on the PA Capitol steps with MILPA and Driving PA Forward advocating for Driver’s Licenses for PA immigrants!
We’re also here standing in solidarity with local students and members of the PA Black Caucus as they remember the murder of #GeorgeFloyd and call on legislators to hold police accountable #BlackLivesMatter
We’re here talking to a staffer from @SenatorDiSanto’s office about the importance of Driver’s licenses for undocumented immigrants.
🚘 We visited Rep Craig Williams office and hand delivered letters from constituents on why we NEED driver’s licenses for all!
We were able to speak to a staffer from Representative Mindy Lee

🚘We need #DriversLicense4All because that means people who work and pay taxes in the state would be able to travel safely.
We handed off constituent letters to @RepBryanCutler’s office! We want our legislators to know that #DriversLicense4All is important 🚘🚘🚘
Handing off another letter, we hope that @RepToohil is able to learn more about the #DriversLicense4All 🚘legislation and support our efforts.
We visited Representative Rich Irvin’s office and gave him letters from his constituents! We need #DriversLicense4All 🚘🚘🚘
We came to let our representatives know that we need legislation that serves ALL people who live in Pennsylvania! Giving everyone drivers licenses means safer roads and peace of mind!

When we fight, we win 💪🏼💪🏽💪🏾💪🏿
