VA Immigrant Advocacy Day (snow day make-up)

1000 Bank Street, Richmond, VA 23218 (Virginia General Assembly Building)

Join the Virginia Coalition of Latino Organizations (VACOLAO)’s annual Immigrant Advocacy Day: snow day make up that will be held during the 2014 Virginia General Assembly Session!

WHAT: Due to the snowy weather last week, several advocates did not have the chance to travel to Richmond, VACOLA is pleased to announce its Snow Day Make up where Immigrant Advocates will travel to Richmond to advocate for immigrant rights. We still have the chance to advocate for the Virginia Equity Tuition (Virginia Dream Act) in the House of Delegates that would expressly authorize Virginia DACA holders to obtain in-state tuition, combat “notario” fraud and legislation that would implement the Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act in Virginia.

WHEN: Friday, January 31, 2014 from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

We will provide transportation leaving from Our Lady Queen of Peace Catholic Church, 2700 S. 19th Street, Arlington, VA 22204 at 6:15am that morning. Please arrive by 6am. We will be returning to northern Virginia around 4:30pm.  If you are taking the bus, please send us an e-mail at [email protected]  or call us at 703-772-1555.
