click to edit
talked to ppl about change.org leadership
was scared but went anyways
they talked a lot about whether or not she was a "leader"
was very nervous about the meeting
parents were naturalized through brother
experienced a "paridigm shift"
eventaully agreed, took leadership classes
started with small meetings, doing anything to make a change
there was a man who when in power that bill couldn't change
partner had to leave, and in great bravery she spoke in front of many people regarding change
in 2022 elections they made sure to inform people on the drive safe bill
encumbent office person was saying "no we won't help you"
family had a small bakery where they reached out about the drive safe bill
thought being undocumented meant that you were limited, when actually it was the opposite
in 2023 got first message with b. coffia
shared objective and demo. of support
FALSE HOPES
in the end the drive safe bill was not a major goal of the democratic party, and they were given false hope
keeps giving excuse
delaying the proposal
petitions
voting support
rep. tate keeps the bill from moving forward (a villain!)
instead passed bills that were even less popular
for the votes they got 54 and all 20 senators but needed 56
won't let them take latino community votes for granted!!!
john demoose was a republican who was supposed to help but didn't see a reason why
legal process is long and complex
it takes forever even for work permits
