Love Thy Immigrant Neighbor
People of faith and conscience call on Gov. Lamont and other state leaders to pass meaningful immigrant protections this fall.

11:30 March to the State Capitol, 210 Capitol Ave
(0.6 mile walk)
12:00 Rally at the Capitol for Immigrant Protections
(Spanish interpretation available – interpretación al español disponible)
Use this form to let us know that you’ll join us. And feel free to meet us at the Capitol at noon if that’s what works for your body or your schedule.
Please invite your friends, family, colleagues, neighbors, and fellow congregants to join you. As always, we ask that you extend these invitations through relationships and relational networks. You can share this flyer if you’d like.
Here is what we mean by “meaningful immigrant protections” :
- Safeguard people’s personal information
- Protect access to state courthouses
- Close loopholes for state and local cooperation with ICE
- Protect Medicaid for all who are currently eligible for coverage
I hope to see you there!
