The Dream Is Now, a new 30-minute documentary film by Davis Guggenheim (Academy Award-wining director of An Inconvenient Truth), tells the moving story of those directly affected by a broken immigration system, the undocumented children of immigrants who yearn to contribute more to the country they call home. This thought-providing film puts a human face on the issue and brings attention to Congress’ efforts to pass reform that will give undocumented youth and and their families the chance to earn their citizenship.

CANCELLED – Jeffco School Board – Candidate Al Rodriguez campaign Kickoff on 5/10

From Tammy Story:

Hi,

I am saddened to report Al Rodriguez has withdrawn from his candidacy for a Jeffco Board of Ed seat for personal reasons.  He reports his decision was very difficult and heartbreaking.  Obviously, the May 10th Kick Off event has been cancelled.
