Members: Please Pay your 2009 Dues!
Your membership in the Florida Immigrant Coalition (FLIC) is invaluable as we work to build the immigrant rights movement for fair treatment of all throughout our state.
Florida is a key state in national immigration reform efforts, and FLIC is at the center of this struggle. We need your participation and support so we can continue to address key issues, defend our rights and promote positive change for all. We have so much to win!
FLIC is involved in local, state, regional and national coalition work, and throughout the next period we will unite to:
* Stop ICE raids that involve violations of our rights;
* Work for fair and humane immigration reform and to combat anti-immigrant legislation, like 287(g) agreements that force police to act as immigration agents.
* Continue connecting people to information, ideas and more importantly to each other.
These objectives were adopted based on our 2008 FLIC Congress.
As you know, members of FLIC:
* Support the Coalition's mission and vision;
* Support Coalition campaigns, utilizing your strengths and abilities; and
* Participate in the Coalition's national congress and pay annual membership dues.
Your financial support is crucial to showing the strength of our grassroots movement, and we would appreciate your prompt dues payment to support the Coalition's work in key areas such as leadership training, community organizing and travel costs for mobilizations.
