This month, members and staff of La Unión del Pueblo Entero joined United We Dream and more than 200 immigrants and allies in D.C. to ask Congress to pass a pathway to Citizenship to protect the more than 11 million undocumented immigrants. The week of action consisted of protests, vigils, and marches to demand permanent protections for immigrants. ¡Si se puede!
