When the COVID-19 pandemic struck earlier this year, both of my parents lost their jobs. With me still in school, my two sisters — Luz and Danielle — have had to work to provide for all of us. They’ve both worked hard to keep us all afloat during these uncertain times, but everything we’ve fought for as a family will be jeopardized if Trump is re-elected.
You see, Luz and Danielle are undocumented. Without their DACA protections, they would have never been able to step up and fill in for our parents when they lost their jobs.
Yesterday UWDA PAC released a new ad featuring me and my sisters, as well as three other ads featuring other families just like mine, to remind voters that our communities are relying on them to use their ballot and their voice to protect our communities this November.
These ads will run on streaming platforms like Hulu and on social media platforms like instagram, youtube and facebook. But you can click here to get an exclusive look at the ads, and then make a donation to UWDA PAC today of any amount to help us keep my ad running.
I’m sharing the story of my family because voters need to know what’s at stake this November and that they have the power to save families like mine. My sisters can’t vote out Trump, but people like you and I can.
UWDA PAC is a grassroots organization dedicated to uplifting the voices of people like me and my sisters and those like us with mixed immigration status families.
The work we do together — like releasing this ad, making phone calls, or sending texts to reach voters — is fueled by a dedicated team of activists chipping in a few bucks where they can to emails just like this one.
To keep ads like this one running, will you make a donation of any amount to UWDA PAC right now? Any amount, whether it’s $1 or $100, is a critical piece of the plan to kick Donald Trump out of office and continue the fight for permanent protections for families like mine.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Thanks for your help in fighting for my sisters the way they have fought for me and my family when we needed them the most. There are so many families like mine and we are all counting on your help in the lead up to the November election.
Thank you.
Teddy, UWDA PAC
PS: If you’re unable to donate, consider sharing the ad far and wide on your personal social media channels instead — it’s a fast and easy way to make a meaningful impact today.
