Movimiento Cosecha, an immigrant-led movement, has been fighting alongside other groups for 14 YEARS to win Drivers Licenses for All in Massachusetts. Despite MA’s progressive reputation, our legislators have so far refused to join the 16+ states where drivers licenses are available to everyone, regardless of immigration status. For the second year in a row, there are bills in the MA Legislature that would make this a reality.
From now until Wednesday, December 8, Cosecha is collecting letters from children and teens -- both immigrants and allies -- to send to the people who have the power to pass these bills. This is an exciting opportunity for you and your students to contribute to an ongoing grassroots campaign for immigrant justice in Massachusetts!
Cosescha has included resources and ideas for short activities you can use with your students in your classroom to help them write these letters. Follow Cosecha on Facebook to stay current.
