...Arizona-style Bill

Rep. Pridemore has begun circulating his draft of a Bill inspired in the infamous Arizona SB1070! This bill will NOT be effective in addressing any current problems that our state or country suffer because of the lack of a working, fair and current immigration reform. The draft includes several points that the AZ SB1070 included. Learn about this bill and join us to fight social justice in the front lines! Read the bill with our explanation 

The immigrnat Workers Union has been informed by the office of Rep. Jocasta Zamarripa that the budget targets immigrant families aswell:

...End of In-State Tuition for Immigrant Youth
After years of fighting for equal acccess to high education, in 2009 Wisconsin passed a law where undocumented student could have access to in-state tuition. A small step forward in the long road for equal rights. However,Scott Walker's budget will force hundred of our brightest student to pay up to 4 times the money they would pay as a state resident, this is unfair as this students and their families are taxpayers and should have equal rights than any other person who lives in this state. "We have been told over and over that we have to study hard and go to college, but how?" says one member of Immigrnat Workrs Union Youth and organizer of the walk out "they ask us to pay $20.000 as "foreign" student and we do not have access to federal student aid, it is impossible!"


On March 3rd, Immigrant Students and Allies walk out from several Madison's High School to protest a new atack to our community and specially the future of our youth.Check our video our FaceBook Group

WHY: It's our 5 Year Anniversary! Since 2006, the Immigrant Workers’ Union has been working to improve the living conditions of immigrant workers in Madison and Dane county.

IWU works in many related areas, recognizing that those directly affected must be the agents of lasting, meaningful change. In addition to our ongoing projects, 2010 was the first year of a very successful summer youth program during which over 25 local high students completed well over 1,000 hours of community service. We also worked closely with independent parents’ organizations that successfully helped stop major proposed cuts to bilingual services in the Madison School District. All of this in addition to our ongoing projects such as: Know your rights workshops, 1-800 Help Line, Black Latino Unity Project, regular community forums, Parents’ Summits, May Day, and more. Most importantly, 2011 promises to be a difficult year:

We need your help to stop Pridemore’s Racist Arizona-style law!
